About the Talk
With research focusing on pathological mechanisms and therapeutic targets for migraine headache, experiments in Dr. Dussor's laboratory have focused on understanding cellular mechanisms of neural activation/sensitization as well as plasticity. Recently, his team has begun to investigate mechanisms that may contribute to the higher prevalence of migraine in women, including the hormone prolactin and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP).
