Horbinski, Craig
Professor of Pathology
Description of Interests
One of our research focuses is tumor-associated epilepsy. In particular, we seek to understand why gliomas with IDH mutations are more epileptogenic than IDH wild-type gliomas.
Jayaraman, Arun
Associate Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Description of Interests
Dr. Arun Jayaraman's work primarily focuses on developing and executing both investigator-initiated and industry-sponsored research in prosthetics, orthotics, rehabilitation robotics, and other assist... [more]
Johnson, Lisa
Assistant Professor of Medical Social Sciences
Description of Interests
The Dynamic Brain Laboratory investigates the brain dynamics underlying memory and cognitive control across the human lifespan. Research combines methods from cognitive psychology and human neuroscien... [more]
Kalb, Robert
Professor of Neurology
Description of Interests
The environment in which an organism resides is never constant and thus appropriate adaptation to changing conditions is required for survival. Cells in metazoans also experience perturbations in thei... [more]
Kath, William
Professor of Applied Mathematics
Description of Interests
Quantitative biological modeling, circadian rhythms, growth and development; computational neuroscience, action potential propagation and dendritic integration in neurons.
Kearney, Jennifer
Associate Professor of Pharmacology
Description of Interests
Research in my laboratory is focused on identifying genetic factors that contribute to severe childhood epilepsies and neurodevelopmental disorders. To understand how genetic variations contribute to ... [more]
Kennedy, Ann
Assistant Professor of Neuroscience
Description of Interests
I am a theoretical neuroscientist studying the structure of animal behavior and the neural mechanisms of flexible and adaptive behavior control, using tools from dynamical systems, statistical modelin... [more]
Kessler, John
Davee Professor of Neurology
Description of Interests
Our research has focused extensively on the regulation of gene expression by stem/progenitor cells and their differentiated progeny. We have defined signaling pathways that direct glial and neuronal l... [more]
Kimchi, Eyal
Assistant Professor of Neurology
Description of Interests
I am a systems neuroscientist and clinically active neurologist. I lead translational research on the brain networks and dynamic rhythms that support clear thinking, with a commitment to understanding... [more]
Kiskinis, Evangelos
Assistant Professor of Neurology
Description of Interests
My laboratory harnesses the power of human pluripotent stem cells to study neuronal development as well as to understand how neuronal function is impaired as a result of injury or disease. We utilize ... [more]
