“How the brain maintains homeostasis, from thirst to aging“

Host: Liqun Luo

💡 William Allen trained in both molecular and systems neuroscience as a Ph.D. student at Stanford’s Interdepartmental Neurosciences Program, Dr. Allen plans to use state-of-the-art spatial transcriptomics, systematic CRISPR-based in vivo screen, and imaging to identify the mechanisms underlying brain aging and neurodegeneration at the level of cells, tissues, and organisms. He is currently a Junior Fellow of Harvard Society of Fellows, where he initiated research on brain aging.
