Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience, Brain Resilience Seminar

The first Monday of each month, the Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience will host monthly seminars to bring together awardees, affiliated professors and students for a series of 'lab meeting' styled talks. Two speakers will discuss their brain resilience research, experiences in the field, and answer questions about their work.

To support our researchers' participation in this open science ‘lab-meeting style’ exchange of ideas, these seminars are not streamed/recorded and are only open to members of the Stanford community. 

Ernie Hwaun, Stanford University

 Functional role of hippocampal dentate spikes in aging and Alzheimer's disease

Lay abstract TBD

 

Scott Dixon, Stanford University

Exploring the lysosome-ferroptosis axis in cell death and degeneration

Scott's lab is interested in understanding mechanisms of non-apoptotic cell death using chemical, biochemical and genetic tools.
