Marta Filizola, Ph.D. Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences Dean and Professor With an average of 130 Americans dying every day, and opioid drugs still representing the gold standard for pain management, there is an urgent need to identify innovative solutions to prevent life-threatening opioid overdoses and treat opioid use disorders. Clinical opioid drugs inhibit nociceptive signaling but also cause respiratory depression by targeting a G-protein coupled receptor, specifically the µ-opioid...

Despite more than 50 years of clinical use as anxiolytics, anticonvulsants and sedative/hypnotic anti-A receptor optical reporters, the mechanisms underlying BenZoDiazepine (BZD) tolerance are poorly understood. BZDs potentiate the actions of Gamma-AminoButyric Acid (GABA), the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the adult brain, through positive allosteric modulation of 2 subunit-containing GABA type A receptors (GABAA receptors). Our current work focuses on defining key molecular events...

Rajiv R. Ratan M.D., Ph.D. Burke Professor of Neurology and Neuroscience Associate Dean (affiliate), Weill Cornell Medicine Executive Director, Burke Neurological Institute Understanding how neurons adapt at a transcriptional level to distinct physiological stresses in the nervous system will likely provide important insights not only into normal brain function but also how it goes awry in disease. My laboratory has been interested not only in how oxidative stress can trigger cell death in the...
