Research into neural regeneration and the utilization of stem cells holds hope for millions of Americans who are affected by deafness, blindness, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, and other neurological disorders. The members of our lab are investigating those topics and seeking to discover methods for stimulating the regeneration of neurosensory cells and means for preventing their loss.
