Is Wright State currently doing research in movement disorders?
Yes. In October 2007, the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine was awarded a prestigious $4.8 million Program Project Grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS). The grant furthers the research of five WSU scientists into why full recovery doesn’t always occur after damaged nerves are regenerated. Five collaborative projects, each led by a Wright State NIH-funded investigator, are working together to better understand the recovery — or lack of it — from nerve trauma. The goal of the project is to understand how injury, regeneration and alterations in neural activity affect synaptic and network function and to explore the mechanisms that either promote or impede recovery.
