Lindsey Barrett
Ph.D. Candidate
[email protected] 

I am currently investigating the regulation and degradation of HSF-1 in neurodegenerative diseases using C. elegans models. My goal is to examine HSF-1 levels in these diseases in a tissue specific manner and to screen for modulators in this regulatory pathway.

​I enjoy reading, camping, and taking long walks on the beach.

I am helping Lindsey with various lab operations such as worm maintenance, and sample preparation. We are analyzing the regulation and degradation of HSF-1 in neurodegenerative diseases. We want to understand key cellular processes involved in this modulation. 

​I enjoy nature, and love to read philosophical texts.
