The Jadavji Laboratory investigates how the brain responds to different biological processes throughout the lifespan. We perform translational research to understand how age-related diseases impact brain function. 

Our contributions to neuroscience aging research include providing an understanding on how dietary deficiencies in vitamin B12 increase apoptosis in brain tissue and change mitochondria metabolites within the gut after an ischemic stroke. We have also demonstrated that a maternal diet deficient in either choline or folic acid negatively impacts ischemic stroke outcome in male and female offspring. The proposed project will drive this line of investigation in my laboratory forward. 

All members of the laboratory are given opportunities to learn and conduct biomedical research under supervised mentorship by Dr. Jadavji. 

The Jadavji Laboratory promotes an open, collaborative, rigorous, and fun environment to learn and grow as a scientist and individual.
