Scholarship Description:

Our laboratory studies regenerative medicine, Alzheimer’s disease-associated brain neurodegeneration, burn injury, wound healing impaired by diabetes or aging, skin biology / dermatology, neuropathy, inflammation, leukocyte and stem cell biology, and biomaterials using animal and cell-culture models and comprehensive state-of-art facilities for cellular and molecular biology and neuroscience as well as liquid chromatography – mass spectrometers.

Our laboratory is the pioneer in the discovery of several novel inflammation-resolving and regenerative lipid mediators, and continues to be the world leading investigator in the field. 

Our goal is to identify mechanisms and develop therapeutic and diagnostic leads to treat these diseases. For more information, please check our website at https://www.medschool.lsuhsc.edu/neuroscience/and https://www.medschool.lsuhsc.edu/neuroscience/faculty_detail.aspx?name=hong_song

The incumbents will join the research team consisted of multidiscipline experts in the field, have ample opportunities to acquire and develop new skills, conduct and publish innovative research as well as to learn grant approaches.
