COBRE CNTN 1st Annual Meeting
Jefferson Kinney
We had the pleasure of getting together with other researchers working on our COBRE grant here in Southern Nevada, as well as those working on a separate COBRE up at the University of Nevada, Reno, in our first annual COBRE Meeting held at the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health. Among the many speakers were Dr. Jeff Cummings from the Cleveland Clinic, who oversees the COBRE grant, and Dr. Bruce Lamb, from the Stark Neurosciences Research Institute, whom we work closely with on several aspects of this grant.
Members from our lab highlighted our role in this grant, work currently underway, as well as data that has already been collected. Dr. Kinney gave a talk on the translational work that we are doing to bridge some of the gaps between clinical studies and animal research, Monica Bolton gave a short presentation on the project she is currently working on from her dissertation research, and Andrew Murtishaw displayed a poster on some of his previous work.
