Background

Summary

To successfully develop therapeutic initiatives designed to eradicate the causes of disease, rather than treat its symptoms, it is paramount to have a clear understanding of the underlying biological mechanisms implicated in the development of such diseases. My research is focused on the identification of the molecular components implicated in highly prevalent neurological diseases; including multiple sclerosis and essential tremor. To identify the key molecular players implicated in the onset of these neurological diseases, our research is focused on the characterization of multi-incident families and large multi-ethnic populations from around the globe.

Nuclear Receptor NR1H3 in Familial Multiple Sclerosis(Link)

Neuron
June 1, 2016

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease characterized by myelin loss and neuronal dysfunction. Despite the aggregation observed in some families, pathogenic mutations have remained elusive. In this study we describe the identification of NR1H3 p.Arg415Gln in seven MS patients from two multi-incident families presenting severe and progressive disease, with an average age at onset of 34...more
