Understanding the mechanism of neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.
Franz, Colin K
Assistant Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Neurology - Ken and Ruth Davee Department
Bio
The goal of regenerative rehabilitation is to boost innate repair processes and/or to replace tissues in order to improve function. This is the focus of my career as a physiatrist-scientist with exper... [more]
Kalb, Robert G
Professor of Neurology (Neuromuscular Disease)
Kiskinis, Evangelos
Associate Professor of Neurology (Neuromuscular Disease) and Neuroscience
Bio
Our research is focused on addressing fundamental aspects of the biology of human neurons in the context of physiological conditions and in the context of disease. We have two clinical interests, moto... [more]
Ozdinler, Hande
Associate Professor of Neurology (Neuromuscular Disease)
Bio
I am interested in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms for cell-type specific degeneration in neurodegenerative diseases. I am mainly focused on corticospinal motor neurons that degene... [more]

Silverman, Richard B
Professor of Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences and Pharmacology
Wu, Jane Y
Professor of Neurology (Neuromuscular Disease)
Bio
My primary research interests are in molecular mechanisms of gene regulation, particularly those involved in neural development and neural degeneration. My lab is focusing on two areas, RNA regulation... [more]
