معرفی
Dr. Sokol Todi is a Professor and Chair of Pharmacology at Wayne State University School of Medicine. His research focuses on age-dependent neurodegenerative diseases, including Spinocerebellar Ataxias, Kennedy’s Disease, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s.
- University: Wayne State University
- School: School of Medicine
- Department: Department of Pharmacology
Research Interests: Dr. Todi’s lab investigates molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration, emphasizing protein quality control and genetic factors. They utilize Drosophila melanogaster, mammalian cell culture, and post-mortem tissue analysis to model disease progression. Key methods include genetics, protein biochemistry, imaging, and electrophysiology.
Publication Trends: Recent work highlights Drosophila models for polyglutamine diseases, ubiquitin chain dynamics, polyamine pathways in Parkinson’s, and therapeutic compound screening for Alzheimer’s. Collaborative efforts span institutions like University of Michigan and Thomas Jefferson University.
Courses Taught: Advanced Topics in Pharmacology (PHC7650), Fundamentals of Human Physiology (PHC7005), and Pharmacology Lecture (PHC7010).
