Helen Bronte-Stewart, MD, MS
John E. Cahill Family Professor, Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Adult Neurology) and, by courtesy, of Neurosurgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focus is human motor control and brain pathophysiology in movement disorders. Our overall goal is to understand the role of the basal ganglia electrical activity in the pathogenesis of movement disorders. We have developed novel computerized technology to measure fine, limb and postural movement. With these we are measuring local field potentials in basal ganglia nuclei in patients with Parkinson's disease and dystonian and correlating brain signalling with motor behavior.

Anne Brunet
Michele and Timothy Barakett Endowed Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe want to understand aging based on the integration of model organisms with diverse lifespans. We have identified pathways involved in delaying aging in response to external stimuli such as availability of nutrients. We are also interested in addressing complex questions about aging in vertebrates, focusing on brain aging and rejuvenation. Finally, we have pioneered the short-lived African killifish as a powerful model to identify new principles of vertebrate aging and ‘suspended animation’.
