Amanda McQuade, PhD
Postdoctoral Fellow
Kampmann Lab
Education:
- PhD in Biological Sciences; UC Irvine (2021)
- B.A. in Neuroscience from Scripps College (2016)
Research Interests:
I am interested in studying microglial behavior with the broader goal of understanding how these brain-resident immune cells impact the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. I'm looking forward to using CRISPRi/a technologies to form unbiased hypotheses of key regulatory proteins affecting microglial disease responses.
