Kotzbauer Lab
Paul Kotzbauer, MD, PhD
Advances research on neurodegenerative diseases, focusing on Parkinson’s disease and infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy. The lab investigates alpha-synuclein aggregation, neuronal connectivity and enzyme dysfunction to develop imaging tools and treatments that slow disease progression and improve diagnosis.
Kummer Lab
Terrance T. Kummer, MD, PhD
Investigating cellular damage in traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer’s disease. With a focus on synaptic and gray matter injury, the lab uses innovative imaging techniques like SEQUIN to quantify synapse loss and explore its connection to neurodegeneration.
Landsness Lab
Eric Landsness, MD, PhD
Studying how sleep influences brain plasticity and stroke recovery, aiming to develop sleep-based therapies that improve outcomes for patients with neurological diseases.
Lee Lab
Jin-Moo Lee, MD, PhD
Investigating how the brain heals after injury, focusing on stroke, Alzheimer’s disease and cerebral small vessel disease. Using molecular biology, neuroimaging and genomics, the lab bridges basic science and clinical care to develop therapies that promote recovery and repair.
Leukodystrophy & Neurometabolic Care Center
Pediatric
Dedicated to improving the lives of children with rare neurologic conditions, our center offers expert, compassionate care for families affected by leukodystrophies and neurometabolic disorders. As a Leukodystrophy Care Network Certified Center, we provide advanced testing, personalized treatment plans and coordinated support from a multidisciplinary team.
Li Lab
Mingjie Li, MD, PhD
Developing viral vectors to improve gene delivery to neural cells for research and treatment of neurological disorders. Focusing on lentiviral and adeno-associated virus systems, the lab supports neuroscience studies by creating tools for cell culture and in vivo experiments that target disease mechanisms and therapeutic strategies.
