The goals of the Dulin lab are (1) to gain new understanding about the pathophysiology underlying central and peripheral dysfunctions after spinal cord injury, and (2) to develop robust new therapies that can improve quality of life for those living with spinal cord injury. Specifically, we are working to develop optimized neural stem/progenitor cell transplantation approaches to restore neural circuitry controlling motor, sensory, and autonomic functions. We strive to combine a high level of scientific rigor with transparency and collaboration in order to drive the field forward toward the development of powerful clinical therapies.
