Join us for MLS Seminar featuring Akiko Nishiyama, Professor of Physiology & Neurobiology at the University of Connecticut!
Dr. Nishiyama's research focuses on molecular and cellular mechanisms of heterogeneity and lineage plasticity of NG2 glial cells (also known as polydendrocytes or oligodendrocyte precursor cells) and neuron-glial interactions in normal development and in lesion repair.
The techniques used in Dr. Nishiyama's lab include mouse genetics combined with immunohistochemistry, tissue culture, fluorescence and confocal microscopy, and biochemical and molecular biological techniques including RNA-sequencing and ChIP sequencing.
