Ketamine was no more effective than placebo in reducing depressive symptoms in surgical patients with major depression, results of a new study, which contradict prior research, suggest. Image Featured News | Oct 30 2023 Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience Surprising finding links sleep, brain insulation, and neurodegeneration Erin Gibson’s lab has discovered that the precursor cells to myelin-producing oligodendrocytes are regulated by the circadian system in mice. When that regulation breaks down, the researchers saw abnormal myelination — but also fragmented sleep.

Working in the Gibson Lab, Brain Resilience Postdoc Scholar Daniela Rojo looks at how abnormal changes in gene activity impact the cells involved in producing myelin to the extent that it leads to neurodegeneration in the brain.
