"Spinal Cord Injury, Plasticity and Spinal interneurons"

Research Profile: Michael began research in spinal cord injury during his undergraduate research at the University of Tasmania. After graduating with Bachelor of Science (Hons), Michael completed his PhD with Norman Saunders at the University of Melbourne. In 2005, he began postdoctoral training at the Universities of Melbourne and Florida (with David Howells and Paul Reier, respectively), before accepting a non-tenure track position at the University of Florida in 2009. After receiving funding from the National Institute of Health (R01) in 2012, Michael accepted a position with the Spinal Cord Research Center at Drexel University to continue his research into spinal cord injury, neuroplasticity and strategies to optimize repair and lasting functional recovery. Now an Associate Professor, funded by the NIH and research foundations, Michael is actively pursuing cell therapies and rehabilitative strategies to promote recovery of breathing after cervical spinal cord injury. http://www.spinalrepair.org/cover-page/
