BIO & RESEARCH INTERESTs
Neeraj Singh, BVSc, MVSc, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiological Sciences at the College of Veterinary Medicine, Oklahoma State University, where his research focuses on investigating the molecular mechanism driving pathophysiology associated with neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease progression and identifying the therapeutic targets regulating neuroinflammation, which can suppress the progression of the disease. The lab's key research area includes investigating the genes regulating glial function and their role in modulating the phenotypic transition of microglia from homeostatic to damage-associated state (DAM) in the Alzheimer's disease mice model. The other research area includes understanding neurotoxicity associated with xenobiotics with particular reference to Parkinson's disease. Dr. Singh received his degree in Veterinary Medicine and Master's in Veterinary Pharmacology from GBPUA&T, India. He earned his PhD specializing in Immunology and Nanomedicine from Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia. During his post-doctoral training, he extensively investigated neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease at Iowa State University and Alzheimer's disease at UCONN School of Medicine.
