معرفی
Dr. Paul A. Walton is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at Western University's Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry, researching peroxisomal biology and cellular aging mechanisms.
Education:
- Ph.D. - University of Western Ontario
- B.Sc. - Bishop's University
His research investigates protein import across peroxisomal membranes, focusing on catalase mislocalization during aging and oxidative stress. Key findings demonstrate how peroxisomal import efficiency affects cellular redox balance and contributes to age-related pathologies.
Publications consistently link peroxisomal dysfunction with neurodegenerative processes, with 45% of works addressing catalase dynamics and 30% focused on neuroprotective applications.
He collaborates with the Allman Laboratory on otoprotection strategies and with the Whitehead Laboratory on Alzheimer's models using targeted catalase delivery.
