Neurological Surgery Labs
Amini-Abecassis Labs
The Kouokam Lab studies how environmental pollutants (like aromatic amines) cause metabolic syndrome and cancer. Using Omics and in vivo/vitro models, they also research nutraceuticals to find anti-inflammatory triggers against toxicants.
Cerapex Labs
Cerapex Labs studies cerebrovascular disorders, focusing on intracranial aneurysm formation and hemorrhagic stroke pathophysiology. By uncovering how these vessels rupture, the lab aims to develop therapeutics to improve patient outcomes.
Neurocognitive Research Group
The Neurocognitive Research Group studies brain function in health and disease, measuring cognition, emotion, and neurophysiology, including sports cognition.
Spinal Cord Injury Lab
The Spinal Cord Injury Lab develops multimodal neuromodulatory therapies to restore function and reverse systemic deficits after spinal cord injury using translational models.
Outcomes Research Lab
This lab uses health services research to analyze neurosurgical data, focusing on costs, complications, and effectiveness. They employ rigorous observational methods, including regression, cluster analysis, and Directed Acyclic Graphs, to infer causa
