Gene Gurkoff, Ph.D.

Dr. Gurkoff's research is centered around decoding changes in neural activity in models of traumatic brain injury and epilepsy that correlate with cognitive changes. Further, he is using these data to develop novel tools, and specifically deep brain stimulation, with the goal of improving or restoring outcome in individuals with chronic deficits. Dr. Gurkoff is committed to working with a diverse team, including individuals with different expertise (i.e. basic neuroscience, neuroengineering and clinical) and career experience (i.e. undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate training).
