James R Roede · Denver, Colorado
Dr. James Roede's lab at the University of Colorado Denver focuses on understanding how environmental chemicals affect neurodevelopment, particularly in individuals with Down syndrome. They study specific cellular mechanisms that may lead to cognitive challenges in this population, exploring the role of toxic compounds and how they interact with genetic factors. The lab employs advanced techniques to investigate changes at the cellular and molecular levels that contribute to cognitive variability in Down syndrome.
