Macleod Neurophysiology Laboratory

Macleod Neurophysiology Laboratory in New Orleans, LA specializes in investigating synaptic physiology, with a particular interest in the interplay between energy supply and demand, as well as the correlation between activity-dependent pH fluctuations and synaptic efficacy. Their primary objective is to identify the specific genes responsible for regulating these mechanisms and develop biophysical models to enhance comprehension of their impact on human health and pathology.

Utilizing fruit flies, mice, and iPSCs, the laboratory leverages the genetic flexibility and experimental feasibility of these systems to conduct their research effectively. Macleod Neurophysiology Laboratory's work is dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge in the field of synaptic physiology and its implications for various health conditions.
