Research Abstract
The research interests of this laboratory are developmental neurobiology dealing with the mechanism of neuronal migration and final positioning, the lineage studies of macroglial and microglial cells in the CNS, ontogenesis of excitatory amino acid receptors in the developing brain, the effects of methylmercury on the developing brain, the protease nexins in development and CNS pathology and studies of Alzheimer's disease.
