The
focus of our research is to understand some of the molecular mechanism
by which aspects of daily living, such as diet and exercise, enhance
cognitive abilities through the action of specific neurotrophins on
synaptic plasticity. We are employing a multidisciplinary
approach, ranging from gene expression to behavioral techniques, to
understand the therapeutic capacity of diet, exercise and other
lifestyle factors to overcome CNS disorders
