Hippocampal Circuitry in Brain Health, Injury, and Disease
In the coming year, we are looking for new members to help us with these studies in rodents:
* Activity of hippocampal dentate gyrus neurons during memory consolidation (NIH/NIMH funded project)
* Role of neuroinflammation in disrupted brain-bladder communication (NIH/NIDDK funded project)
* Assess the collection of dentate gyrus neurons active in the early stage of opioid addiction (pilot studies)
* Assess behavior of mice who flew on the International Space Station (pilot studies)
The functions of RNAs in fertility, inheritance, and development
We are interested in how RNAs present in sperm are capable of transmitting non-genetic information to their progeny, influencing offspring phenotype.
Super Bugs and Appropriate Drugs
My research focuses on antimicrobial resistant bacteria for dogs and cats, how they get them and how we treat them appropriately.
Translational and Epidemiologic Hypertension Research
Hypertension, epidemiology, and pharmacoepidemiology research
Immunosuppression and outcomes after liver transplantation
I use large databases to study predictors of outcomes after liver transplantation and center variability in patient care.

Kidney cancer and prostate cancer clinical research
Opportunities to be involved in writing clinical trials and analyses of correlative data.
Brain imaging and genetics of psychiatric conditions
Dr. Alexander-Bloch's lab investigates normal brain development and the altered developmental trajectories that lead to mental illness, by integrating neuroimaging, genomics and clinical information.
