Project Outline: Measuring and predicting rates of cognitive decline and the rate of accumulation of the pathognomonic features in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are fundamental to understanding the origins of the disease. It is also essential for the implementation of more efficient clinical trials...

Project Outline: Adaptations within the central nervous system during exercise training strongly contribute to improved muscle performance and force capacity. However, the specific sites and mechanisms of modulation and adaptation within the nervous system remain unclear. One potential candidate...

Project Outline: The separation of species requires the evolution of genetic barriers to gene exchange. Understanding this crucial process requires that we identify the genetic differences involved and how they affect patterns of gene flow along genomes. In recent years, whole genome scans for...
