ALFRED SUN LAB

The Sun lab is building innovative human neural models to understand how human nervous system develop, mature, and age; and how dysfunction in these processes lead to various neurological disorders. A major focus of the lab now is neurodegeneration, particularly Parkinson disease. Another focus of the lab is to construct synthetic or artificial cells that are programmed with specific neuronal activities. Functional assembly and integration of such cells may serve as useful models for dissecting disease mechanisms as well as fueling translational discoveries.
