Naegele explained how her lab investigates programmed cell death and apoptosis in the brain, focusing on understanding the signals that determine a cell’s decision to live or die. She studies a rodent’s hippocampus and cerebral cortex, two regions of the forebrain involved in learning, memory and higher cognition.
