My lab identified presynaptic function as one of the likely loci of this vulnerability and has leveraged the sensitivity of sy naptic vesicle recycling to metabolic compromise to dissect the molecular underpinnings of how local ATP production is balanced during electrical ac tivity in axons. Our work has helped identify critical control points that in turn appear central to neurodegenerative diseases and offer new therap eutic approaches to neurodegeneration.\n\nTimothy Ryan\n\nTimothy Ryan\, P hD is a Rockefeller/Sloan-Kettering/Cornell Tri-Institutional Professor in the department of Biochemistry & Biophysics at Weill Cornell Medicine. He earned is BSc and MSc in Physics at Âé¶¹´«Ã½ÍøÕ¾ and his PhD in Phys ics at Cornell University. Following postdoctoral work in the department o f Molecular & Cellular Physiology at Stanford he joined the faculty at Wei ll Cornell Medicine in 1997. He was an Alfred P.
