Grant Activity:
Studying the persisting glial dysfunction occurring after preterm brain injury to uncover new therapeutic targets
Purpose:
We cannot treat brain damage in prematurely born babies despite it often leading to permanent brain injury and disability. Cells called glia are vital for building the brain and keeping it healthy. After early-life brain injury, we are learning that glia cannot perform these tasks as they should for many months. In this project, we will test if helping glia 'get back to work’ in the weeks or months after injury might be a way to repair the damaging effects of preterm birth.
