Dr Lauren Hablitz
Dr Lauren Hablitz is an Assistant Professor in Neurology and an expert in circadian biology. Hablitz lab investigates the role of circadian timing, synchrony, and entrainment in health and disease. Current projects investigate how the circadian rhythm of glymphatic fluid movement contributes to stroke pathology and recovery, and the contributions of cell-type specific molecular clocks to stroke pathology and recovery.
