Bio/Research

Strupp’s research primarily deals with causes of human cognitive dysfunction, studies that involve both children and rodent models. The goals of the animal studies are to determine the nature and underlying neural basis of the cognitive dysfunction, with implications for therapeutic intervention and for elucidating basic brain-cognition relationships. Current projects (described below) focus on (1) the lasting effects of maternal choline supplementation in rodent models (including a murine model of Down syndrome) and humans, and (2) the lasting effects of developmental exposure to manganese.
