Biography
Monique F Stins has her expertise in Blood Brain Barrier research and is seeking to dissect underlying molecular relations between Blood brain barrier activation and neurological damage. This may lead to identification of pharmacologic targets for therapeutic intervention to improve neurological outcomes of infections with neurotropic microbes. She is using various models of the blood brain barrier in microbial disease to target these pathogenic mechanisms. She has experience teaching students at levels ranging from middle and high school to undergraduate college and upper level college courses.
