معرفی
Tara Moore, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at Boston University. Her research focuses on cortical injury recovery, normal aging processes, and neuroinflammatory mechanisms in non-human primates (NHPs). She collaborates with researchers at Pfizer, Inc. and Henry Ford Hospital, MI, to evaluate therapeutic interventions for cognitive and motor deficits.
- Education: B.A. in Psychology (University of Calgary), PhD in Anatomy and Neurobiology (Boston University)
- Laboratory: Co-investigator, Laboratory of Cognitive Neurobiology (with Drs. Moss, Rosene, Killiany, Mortazavi)
Dr. Moore investigates post-injury motor cortex reorganization, exosome-based therapies for brain repair, and age-related cognitive decline in NHP models. Her work bridges neuroregeneration, neuroinflammation, and clinical translation. Collaborative studies include pharmaceutical interventions for aging-related cognitive impairment and forensic analyses of decomposition processes.
Key article trends include:
- Therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles in cortical injury recovery
- Age-related neurodegenerative mechanisms in primate models
- MRI/CSF biomarkers for cognitive decline
- Forensic taphonomy studies on decomposition
Labs & Collaborations: Dr. Moore works with the Laboratory of Cognitive Neurobiology at Boston University and partners with Henry Ford Hospital (Detroit, MI) and Pfizer, Inc. on translational neuroscience projects.
