Our group is primarily interested in the CNS response to acute injuries such as stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), traumatic brain injury (TBI) and concussion (mild TBI). As a member of the Brain Injury Translational Research Center, we collaborate with other participating colleagues to translate findings made in the laboratory using transgenic animal models of brain injury to design clinically relevant studies. We are particularly interested in how specific genetic polymorphisms govern the extent of injury and recovery following these brain injuries.Stroke is a major leading cause of death in the United States and 15-30% of those who survive are permanently disabled. Spontaneous ICH accounts for 15% of all strokes but is one of the most disabling forms of stroke, with a 40-50% mortality rate within the first 30 days. TBI is also a major public health concern within both the civilian and military population, accounting for more than 1.5 million incidents in the US each year. It is estimated that as many as 3.8 million mild TBIs (concussions) occur in the US each year during competitive sports and recreational activities alone.Recovery following brain injury is variable, even within patients with similar severity of injury. A growing body of literature suggests that an individual’s genetic predisposition can contribute significantly to the extent of the injury as well as recovery. Specifically, having a ‘good’ or ‘bad’ variant of a particular gene can influence a better or worse outcome following a brain injury. To this end, we have developed a number of pilot clinical research studies as well as larger multicenter studies designed to identify genetic factors that may play a role in governing outcome following brain injury in an acute setting. It is our hope that these studies will provide additional insight into the pathophysiology of the injury and identification of novel therapeutic targets.

My lab served as a molecular biology core group in the Department of Pathology. In addition to providing molecular biology expertise to colleagues in the department, we continued studying the expression of the human and murine APOE gene in the CNS and the role of apoE in various disease states using animal models.
