Research Description:

There is limited regenerative capacity in the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS). My lab studies this loss of regeneration in two different contexts:

  • Adult neurogenesis, where neural stem cells (NSCs) make newborn neurons in the adult brain
  • CNS axon regeneration following an injury

Specifically, we determine how changes during development and aging influence these aspects of regeneration.
