Research overview


Intracellular neural signaling networks

Building new neural structures

 PhD research was conducted at Stanford with Richard W. Tsien.

Outlined below are the chief pathways used for signaling from synaptic activity to the key nuclear transcription factor CREB. This network likely helps control memory storage.
