Edmund Hollis, Ph.D.
Assistant Professor, Neuroscience
Brain & Mind Research Institute, Weill Cornell Medicine
Director, Circuit Repair Laboratory, Burke Neurological Institute
Edmund Hollis uses genetic models and optogenetic tools to investigate the neuron-intrinsic limitations of regeneration and the system-level integration of circuit changes after spinal cord injury, in order to develop novel therapeutic interventions that take advantage of cortical plasticity to promote recovery.

Alzheimer’s disease is a common neurodegenerative disease that has no effective treatment. We are using genetic approaches to determine the underlying mechanisms of disease with the goal of identifying novel therapeutic targets for treatment. Informatic analyses indicate that AD heritability is enriched within...

Every decision we make is accompanied by a sense of confidence about the likely outcome. An accurate sense of confidence confer benefits for a broad range behavior, such as investing more when a gain is more likely. Conversely, the pathological misevaluation of confidence contributes to a wide range of neuropsychiatric conditions, including anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and addiction. I will...
