About
Dr. Paola Sacchetti is an Associate Professor and Co-Chair of the Department of Biology at the University of Hartford's College of Arts and Sciences. Her research bridges neuroscience and molecular biology, with a focus on neurodegenerative disorders. Key areas include:
- Development and degeneration of dopamine neurons in Parkinson's disease
- Gene regulation by transcription factors (e.g., Nurr1, liver X receptors)
- Neurogenesis mechanisms in human stem cells
- Molecular basis of dementia and traumatic brain injury
- Public education tools for concussion awareness
Her 13 publications (1999-2013) demonstrate consistent focus on dopamine systems, neurogenesis, and molecular pathways in neurological disorders. Recent work explores oxysterols' role in midbrain development and concussion biology.
