Pr Angeliki LOUVI
Neurosurgery, Interdepartmental Neuroscience Program, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, USA
Dr. Angeliki Louvi (Ph.D. Columbia P&S, 1997) is Professor of Neurosurgery and of Neuroscience, Deputy Director of the MD-PhD Program, and member of the Yale Interdepartmental Neuroscience Program (INP) and the Yale Program on Neurogenetics. She is interested in understanding how the perturbation of basic biological processes leads to clinically significant brain pathology. Her laboratory investigates the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cerebrovascular and structural brain disorders associated with specific genetic lesions. We study the mechanisms governing the development of the mammalian brain. We are particularly interested in understanding how the perturbation of basic biological processes leads to clinically significant brain pathology. Within the Yale Program on Neurogenetics, we study the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying cerebrovascular and structural brain disorders associated with specific genetic lesions. Insight into these questions will shed light on fundamental biological processes and provide information relevant for the design of therapeutic approaches.
