IMAGING THE DEVELOPING BRAIN: GROWTH, INJURY & REPAIR

Brain development is an important aspect in the study of the brain’s vulnerability to damage and repair.

Using both mouse and human studies, Dr. Szulc will illustrate how MRI can provide novel insights into the way the brain develops and how these developmental trajectories can be altered by genetics, injury and treatment. She will also discuss new evidence showing some acquired brain injury can be ameliorated by pharmacological and lifestyle interventions.
