Logan Frayser

Thesis Advisor: Pre-Thesis

Research Interests: Neurodegeneration, neural plasticity

Education:

James Madison University, B.S. Biotechnology, 2023

About: Logan’s most significant research experience came as a technician in the laboratories of Dr. Malkova and Dr. Forcelli at Georgetown. This included contributions to projects involving the pharmacological modulation of brain structures in non-human primates as well as studying cellular senescence and senolytic interventions in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy. Logan gained extensive experience with confocal imaging and histological techniques, as well as a range behavioral experiments in this time. Logan is now interested in further exploring a wide range of neurodegenerative diseases and synaptic plasticity mechanisms. He hopes to work with novel approaches in vivo, including pharmacological interventions for neurodegenerative diseases and conditions.
