More information on speaker\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kristy Welshhans<\/a> received her Bachelor of Arts degree in biology from Agnes Scott College and her PhD in neurobiology and behavior from Georgia State University. She received a National Institute of Health postdoctoral fellowship for work examining the role of mRNA binding proteins during axon guidance while in the laboratory of Gary Bassell at Emory University School of Medicine. She is currently an assistant professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of South Carolina and a Center Affiliate of the University of South Carolina Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders Center of Excellence. Her research team focuses on understanding how appropriate connectivity within the nervous system is established during development, with a focus on Down syndrome.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
