NIH-funded research project to develop a multi-modal mouse model of cluster headache to advance understanding and treatment of the condition.
Description
This project aims to develop a multi-modal mouse model of cluster headache by combining trigeminovascular, genetic, and hypothalamic manipulations. The project involves expertise in circadian biology, pharmacology, optogenetics, and pain research. The goal is to provide insights into CH pathophysiology and develop novel therapeutics.
