She received her Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry from Washington University in St. Louis, with minors in Global Health and Psychology. Her previous work has focused on DNA-Encoded Library synthesis, and the clinical development of protein kinase inhibitors. Madi is currently […]
Dr. Lenora Higginbotham is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at Emory University where she specializes in movement disorders. She completed her medical school training at Emory University and neurology residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital. She then returned to Emory for a two-year movement disorders fellowship before joining neurology faculty in 2018. In addition to seeing […]
Fatemeh received her M.D. from Tabriz University of Medical Sciences in Iran. She conducted her medical dissertation at the University of Southern Denmark, focusing on the age and gender dependency of brain glucose metabolism using brain PET/CT scans. She has been involved in multiple clinical trials and clinical projects related to the pathogenesis and treatment […]
Fang Wu earned her Ph.D. degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2004. During her Ph.D. research, she focused on crystal structure-function studies of Apoptosis-Linked proteins. Fang started her postdoctoral research training at Emory Center for Neurodegenerative Disease in 2007, where her projects include chaperone mediated […]
I am a Bioinformatics Research Scientist interested in neurodegenerative diseases. I conducted my PhD research at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I’m currently working to integrating omits data to improve patient outcomes, but I consider myself a system-agnostic computational biologist.
Ananth Shantaraman has earned an M.S. in Bioinformatics from the Georgia Institute of Technology. He has implemented algorithms for peptide/protein quantification and analysis of Mass Spectroscopy Proteomics data. Ananth has collaborated on several research projects with investigators at the Center for Neurodegenerative Disease.
Eddie received his Ph.D. from the National University of Ireland in 2007. He has over 15 years program and project leadership experience in life science research and assists on a number of AD multi-omic research projects within the Seyfried lab and at the Center for Neurodegenerative Disease.
Joshna received her Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar where her research was focused on charge neutralizing post-translational modifications on amyloid proteins and amyloid peptides. She joined Dr. Seyfried’s group in 2022 where her research interests include the identification of various interacting partners with amyloid proteins which are involved in neurodegenerative diseases and the […]
Christine Bowen is a current PhD student in the Biochemistry, Cell, and Developmental Biology Program. She received her Bachelor of Science in Cellular and Molecular Biology with a minor in Chemistry from Appalachian State University.
