w88 online sports betting Interests

My laboratory studies peripheral neuropathies, including trigeminal neuralgia, with focus on glial biology and lipid metabolism. Through my interactions with neuropathic patient families I came to appreciate the life-long suffering these individuals face. w88 online sports betting projects in my laboratory include therapeutic efforts to repair damaged myelin and on approaches that promote the maintenance of healthy myelin throughout lifespan. Our goal is to build toward new therapies for demyelinating disorders of the nervous system and alleviate patient suffering. As an academic faculty, I enjoy training and mentoring students and junior scientists from diverse backgrounds. My laboratory provides hands-on w88 online sports betting training opportunities for individuals with an interest in disorders of the nervous system.
