Chandran Laboratory (Nervous System Repair)

Led by Vijay Chandran · Pediatrics

Auto-generated from UF undergraduate research symposium abstracts

What we study

The lab studies how the nervous system repairs itself after injury or disease, including how nerve cells regrow. It also studies Friedreich's ataxia, an inherited condition linked to low levels of the frataxin protein, and uses computational biology to analyze gene activity.
