Basic Research
Basic laboratory research focuses on the biochemical mechanisms
of HD through construction of cell and animal models of the disease.
These models can be used in developing experimental modalities that
will provide the foundation of the Center's continuing quest for
a cure for HD.
Please see the descriptions of the basic research laboratories
involved in HD research in the Division of Neurobiology.
Research in the Division of Medical Psychology is directed by Jason
Brandt, Ph.D. focuses on neuropsychology of affected individuals
and at risk individuals. Research in David Borschelt's lab in the
Neuropathology Division focuses on mouse models of HD.
