The award funds research to understand redox signaling in brain development and neuron sensitivity to oxidative stress, aiming to reveal mechanisms linking environmental exposures to neurodevelopmental disorders.
Description
This project will characterize normal oxidation and reduction (redox) signaling during brain development and evaluate the relative sensitivity of neurons to oxidative stress by subtype and developmental stage. This knowledge will provide clinically relevant insights into the mechanisms by which redox modifying environmental exposures contribute to neurodevelopmental disorders.
