Xiaohong Lu · Shreveport, Louisiana
Dr. Xiaohong Lu's lab investigates how viral infections, specifically COVID-19, contribute to neurological disorders like Lewy body dementia and cognitive deficits. They use advanced animal models to understand the mechanisms behind these connections and look for therapeutic targets to prevent or treat these long-term symptoms. Their research combines genetics and neurobiology to find ways to help those affected by long COVID and related diseases.
