Biography
Research Interets: Sensory signaling, sleep and fatigue, aging and neurodegenerative diseases, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
My research focuses on understanding basic mechanisms using the invertebrate nematode C. elegans. We study molecular and cellular sensory systems in stress and sleep, and the pathology of neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
