Neurogenetics is a scientific field that combines neurology and genetics focusing on the genetic basis of nervous system development and function.
Our faculty seek to understand how genes influence the development of neurons and glial cells, and how these cells organize into the peripheral and central nervous system. Furthermore, we seek to define the causes of brain and nerve disorders by targeting how inherited mutations affect nerve function and how they lead to complex neurological phenotypes. The results of our studies provide an important foundation for future treatments of neurological disorders.
