Speaker: Daniela Kaufer
Professor in the Department of Integrative Biology and the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California, Berkeley
Her lab investigates how the brain responds to perturbations such as stress and brain injury, focusing on the mechanisms underlying resilience and vulnerability throughout life and aging.
