We anticipate this work to enhance functional recovery and improve the quality of life for trauma patients, while advancing our understanding of HO pathogenesis and normal tissue response to radiation.

We anticipate providing mechanistic understanding of clinical trial observations through the examination of patient biospecimens and in vivo modeling in mice. 

The Stopschinski lab investigates molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s Disease and other tauopathies with the goal to find new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for these conditions.

Learn about the Sharma Lab's research.

The Dr. Zou's CPI lab is directed by Dr. Qing Zou and it works closely with a cross-disciplinary team (clinicians, scientists, fellows) to develop and translate novel MRI techniques for cardiopulmonary MRI for patients with congenital and acquired heart diseases. The research involves different aspects of MRI, including image acquisition and reconstruction, post-processing, quantitative image analysis, pre-clinical investigation, and clinical translation and evaluation. The lab has access to a cardiac-dedicated clinical 1.5T scanner (Philips), a research-dedicated low-field 0.55T MR scanner (Siemens), three research-dedicated 3T scanners (Philips, Siemens, GE). The lab also has access to a high-field 7T research scanner (Philips) for research on the high-field scanner. Some of the scanners also have the capability to do multi-nuclear imaging.

We are broadly interested in how energy is regulated on a systems level during infection. Our current projects are focused on understanding the role that adipose tissue plays in the response to influenza and SARS-CoV2.

The Lin Lab studies the transformation of brief experiences into enduring memories, their impact on behaviors, and the differing responses seen in both healthy and diseased conditions. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, our research explores how experience-induced genetic programs establish connections between experiences and synaptic modifications within neural circuits, ultimately driving persistent behavioral changes.
