STRITTMATTER LAB

With the Yale School of Medicine MyYSM Intranet, we aim to highlight individuals and exemplary programs, help employees find necessary information, and provide organizational clarity and transparency... We focus on understanding the molecular pathways that limit fiber growth and functional rewiring of neuronal circuits during health and disease. Axonal growth encompasses both neural plasticity and repair. Technically, we utilize chronic in vivo imaging of neuronal connections, genetic alteration of mice, and induction of surgical lesions resembling clinical SCI and stroke. In particular, we have found that the Nogo Receptor (NgR1) pathway mediating myelin inhibition of axonal growth plays a role in titrating anatomical plasticity in the adults CNS... The Yale School of Medicine Black Postdoctoral Association (YBPA) addresses the unmet needs of Black postdocs and focuses on the success and well-being of Black postdocs by taking the necessary steps to generate positive experiences in..
