Research Interests:
Our laboratory is interested in the molecular genetics of early vertebrate
embryogenesis, particularly in
the development of the nervous system. We employ the amphibian Xenopus
as the model organism for our
research. Specific research interests include:
- Specification and patterning of the
early nervous system
- Mechanisms underlying the
plasticity of the developing nervous system
- Determination of GABAergic and
glutamatergic neural phenotypes
- The role of hypoxia in neural and
vascular development
- In vivo imaging in small animals
