The Cullum Lab, led by Dr. Munro Cullum, has three lines of research in the areas of concussion, aging and dementia, and neuropsychological assessment. The lab aims to capture comprehensive longitudinal data on sports-related concussions and other mTBI across the lifespan, with an emphasis on adolescent sport-related injuries. The lab also collaborates with research groups investigating early detection of cognitive impairment later in life as well as sport and military-related traumatic brain injury.

Dr. Coughlin's Brain Health Program research focuses on molecular neuroimaging techniques, particularly the use of novel radiotracers with positron emission tomography (PET). Her team aims to inform the molecular understanding of neuropsychiatric conditions, and identify novel, precision therapies guided by imaging results. 

The Wakeland Lab utilizes state-of-the-art genomic strategies to investigate the diversity of the human and mouse immune systems. 

The goal of the Center for Translational Neurodegeneration Research is to identify the underlying biochemical principles of human diseases & disorders in order to design novel therapies to prevent, delay, or cure them.

The goal of Lin (Weichun) Lab's research is to understand how neurons establish synaptic connections during development, and how these connections are maintained throughout adulthood. Toward this goal, we are currently focusing on the following two areas of research.

Working at the boundary between science and philosophy with the goal to inform public policy and advance science education and public understanding of science.
