Microglia protect sensory cells needed for vision after retinal detachment

Pictured above: Retinal microglia (green) and the retinal vasculature (magenta). Photo credit: Dong-Ho Park, M.D., Connor Lab. A research team at Massachusetts Eye and Ear has shown that microglia, the primary immune cells of the brain and retina, play a protective role in response to retinal...

UK Biobank clonal hematopoiesis paper published in Nature

Our work on mosaic chromosomal alterations in the UK Biobank N=150K interim release has been published in Nature! This study used long-range haplotype phasing information to detect mosaicism in blood at very low clonal fractions (down to ~1%), producing an atlas of 8,342 mosaic events. The...

Neural Control of Speech Production

As a long-standing research direction, we continue our studies on normal motor control during complex learned behaviors, such as speech production. We use multi-modal neuroimaging and neural modeling in order to elucidate the organization of functional and structural brain networks underlying the...
