Neurobiology of CNS Injury and Repair

This is a new T32 applicaion requesting funding for a Neurobiology of CNS and Repair Training Program for 4 predoctoral fellows/year. The training will be carried out by training faculty in the UK ScoBIRC. The overall goal of the proposed program is to provide broad-based training in modern research concepts regarding the acute, subacute and chronic pathophysiology of SCI and TBI and the identification of potential disease-modifying molecular targets that can drive the discovery of pharmacological and gene therapeutic strategies by which the devastating effects of these injuries can be ameliorated.
