[F01 Roster]
The F01 study section reviews fellowship applications with an emphasis on clinical neuroscience and disease. The applications investigate aspects of neuroplasticity, neurodegeneration, neuroimmunology, developmental brain disorders, addiction and sleep disorders, and often employ brain imaging, electrophysiological recording, deep brain stimulation or computational modeling. The specific subjects addressed by F01 include:
- Genetic, transgenic and other animal models of Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and Huntington’s diseases.
- Therapeutic treatments for brain injury and diseases including neuroprotection, immunotherapeutics, cell transplantation, nanotechnology and deep brain stimulation.
- In vivo neuroplasticity and neuroprotection studies related to epilepsy and other brain diseases.
- Therapeutic strategies to enhance recovery of function after spinal cord injury, stroke, ischemia and traumatic brain injury.
- In vivo studies of mechanisms underlying autism, schizophrenia, depression and bipolar disorders.
- Therapeutic approaches for behavioral, cognitive and emotional disorders.
- Pharmacotherapy for substance abuse disorders.
- Studies of anterior eye diseases.
- In vivo analysis of mechanisms and therapeutics for central nervous system tumors.
