Ching Chieh Chou

Basic Life Res Scientist
Research Interests
I am interested in the cellular strategies to regulate protein folding, transport and aggregation, and the pathogenic pathways leading to proteome remodeling in age-related neurodegenerative diseases. I use molecular imaging, cell reprogramming and multi-omics technologies to address these questions with importance to the aging and neuroscience field.

John W. Day, MD, PhD

Professor of Neurology (Adult Neurology), of Pediatrics (Genetics) and, by courtesy, of Pathology
Clinical Focus
Neuromuscular Medicine
Research Interests
Our Neuromuscular Division coordinates a comprehensive effort to conquer peripheral nerve and muscle disorders, including the muscular dystrophies, motor neuron disorders, neuromuscular junction abnormalities, and peripheral neuropathies. With patients and families foremost in mind, we have had success defining and combating these diseases, with research focused on identifying genetic causes, developing novel treatment, and maximizing patient function by optimizing current management.

Karl Deisseroth

D. H. Chen Professor, Professor of Bioengineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Clinical Focus
Psychiatry
Research Interests
Karl Deisseroth's laboratory created and developed optogenetics, hydrogel-tissue chemistry (beginning with CLARITY), and a broad range of enabling methods. He also has employed his technologies to discover the neural cell types and connections that cause adaptive and maladaptive behaviors.

Aaron D. Gitler

Stanford Medicine Basic Science Professor
Research Interests
We investigate the mechanisms of human neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, and ALS. We don't limit ourselves to one model system or experimental approach. We start with yeast, perform genetic and chemical screens, and then move to other model systems (e.g. mammalian tissue culture, mouse, fly) and even work with human patient samples (tissue sections, patient-derived cells, including iPS cells) and next generation sequencing approaches.

Frank M. Longo, MD, PhD

George E. and Lucy Becker Professor of Medicine and Professor, by courtesy, of Neurosurgery
Clinical Focus
Alzheimer's Disease, Huntington Disease, Neurology
Research Interests
Clinical interests include Alzheimer's disease and Huntington's disease and the development of effective therapeutics for these disorders. Laboratory interests encompass the elucidation of signaling mechanisms relevant to neurodegenerative disorders and the development of novel small molecule approaches for the treatment of neurodegenerative and other neurological disorders.
