| Prof Henshall's laboratory is interested in the cell and molecular mechanisms of brain injury in neurologic disorders such as epilepsy and stroke. Of particularly interest are the role of apoptosis-associated cell death signaling pathways. The group's research approach takes advantage of an array of experimental epilepsy models as well as human brain samples. Major projects are looking at the influence of genes regulating apoptosis on cell death after seziure, the genomic and proteomic responses of the brain to seizures and during the development of epilepsy and also examining experimental therapeutics which might prevent damage to brain after seizure and influence epilepsy itself.
