BREATHE T32 predoc, Alyssa Mickle, lead a recent publication in the Journal of Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology along with BREATHE members, Dr. Erica Dale, Dr. David Baekey, and Jesús Peñaloza-Aponte. The Dale Lab has shown that closed-loop epidural stimulation (CL-ES) elicits respiratory plasticity in the form of…
The time of day that an experimental oxygen therapy is given highly influences its efficacy in spurring a form of plasticity in the neural system controlling breathing, according to new rat-model research by University of Florida neuroscientists.
BREATHE T32 trainee, Alyssa Mickle, received the Trainee Professional Development Award from the Society for Neuroscience for her abstract titled “Distribution of cervical spinal c-Fos expression after epidural stimulation in rats with cervical spinal cord injury.” This award will help fund her travel to the Society for Neuroscience’s…
BREATHE T32 postdoc, Dr. Alex Marciante, lead a recent publication in APS Function along with BREATHE members Dr. Gordon Mitchell, Dr. Yasin Seven & Mia Kelly, and alumnus Dr. Raphael Perim. The Mitchell Lab has studied the effects of intermittent exposure to low oxygen, or acute intermittent hypoxia, on spinal…
