Research Thread
Cellular Systems & Axonal Injury
Biomedical engineering foundations in traumatic brain injury, axonal pathology, electrophysiology, and neural systems.
This thread preserves the engineering and cellular neuroscience foundation of the research program. Work on axonal pathology, traumatic brain injury, extracellular vesicles, astrocyte-neuron signaling, and high-throughput electrophysiology helped shape the later emphasis on scientific software and translational data systems.
How did engineering approaches to axonal injury, extracellular vesicles, and neural network activity shape the later software-first brain health program?
