Key Research Themes: Dr. Picketts’ lab investigates how chromatin remodelers like ATRX, SNF2H/SNF2L, and PHF6 impact neurodevelopmental disorders. His work includes:
- ATRX functions in neural development and replication stress
- ISWI proteins (SNF2H/SNF2L) in brain size regulation
- PHF6 mutations in Borjeson-Forssman-Lehmann syndrome
- VGF neuropeptides for neuronal damage repair in stroke and MS models
Publications highlight his expertise in epigenetics, neurodevelopment, and regenerative therapeutics. Collaborative Networks include partnerships with the University of Ottawa and OHRI teams.
