Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Meagan M Kitt"
Recent research by Meagan M Kitt focuses on the role of specific receptors and transcriptional programs in neuronal development and neuroinflammation, particularly in relation to psychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases.
Her studies utilize human cerebral organoids and mouse models to investigate the molecular mechanisms involved in serotonergic neuronal identity and connectivity, revealing critical insights into neurodevelopmental processes.
Additionally, Kitt's work addresses the impact of age and surgical interventions on cognitive function, emphasizing how inflammatory responses in the aged brain can affect long-term memory and susceptibility to neurodegenerative conditions.
