Information for Prospective Students

Our laboratory is particularly interested in glial cell biology and astrocyte generation of the developing vertebrate central nervous system. We have several current projects dealing with a broad spectrum of developmental insults, ranging from genetic mutations and nutritional deficiencies to toxicant exposure.
