MARCOGLIESE LAB
Welcome to the Marcogliese lab. Our focus is on studying the mechanisms underlying neurological disease. To do this, we employ strategies in model organisms to functionally assess candidate human disease variants, model disease symptoms, unravel biology, and identify & test drug leads.
