Adjunct Professor, Dep. Phys. Med. & Rehab. University of Western Ontario
His long-term clinical and basic research interests are in the field of autonomic dysfunction and abnormal cardiovascular control after spinal cord injury. Using experimental animal models,clinical investigations in humans and the unique research environment of close collaboration with clinician-scientists provides an excellent opportunity for his research to be at the frontiers of advanced clinical practice and translational research. |

Wolfram Tetzlaff, MD, PhD
Professor, Zoology and Surgery
Associate Director (Discovery) of ICORD
Edie Ehlers Chair in Spinal Cord Research
Rick Hansen Man in Motion Foundation
Research in Dr. Tetzlaff's laboratory is focused on neural development and regeneration, working towards an understanding of the failure of the spinal cord to regenerate after spinal cord injury, with the ultimate goal of contributing to the development of therapeutic strategies for spinal cord and brain trauma.

Jennifer Wong
Ph.D. Candidate
O'Connor Lab
Program in Neuroscience
The overall theme in the O'Connor lab is to elucidate how thenervous system wires itself together into a complex network of axonal connections. The lab is focused on studying the guidance cues that regulatet he directionality of axon growth, as well as the signaling mechanism underlying axon guidance. Jennifer's project is focused on finding new ways to encourage damaged axonal connections in the central nervous system to regenerate and reconnect.
