About
Linnea Weiss is an Associate Research Scientist in the Department of Genetics at Yale University’s Yale School of Medicine. Her work focuses on genetics, neuroscience, immunology, and developmental biology, with a particular emphasis on gene regulation, neuronal development, and immune cell function. She holds a PhD from Yale University and contributes to interdisciplinary research spanning molecular mechanisms and cellular biology.
Her research interests include the molecular basis of neurodevelopmental disorders, immune cell dynamics, and the genetic underpinnings of sensory systems. Recent studies highlight her exploration of mRNA stability, neutrophil behavior in immune responses, and neuronal connectivity in the cerebral cortex. Her work integrates experimental models like Drosophila to study taste systems and mouse models to investigate hematopoietic processes.
Publications from 2011 to 2024 reflect her expertise in genetics, immunology, and developmental biology. Key themes include gene-phenotype relationships in neurodevelopmental disorders, neutrophil-mediated immune regulation, and molecular pathways governing neuronal polarity and connectivity.
Linnea Weiss has not been explicitly noted for scientific awards in the provided information. She collaborates within the Genetics department and contributes to Yale’s broader research ecosystem, though specific grants or teams are not detailed here.
