Research
Focus
- Research interests are in several areas. 1) Motor neuron disease Investigation of an inherited form of motor neuron disease (MND) in dogs represents the central focus of my lab. Most work in MND concerns mechanisms underlying degenerative events while our work indicates that these may occur well after motor unit function is lost.
