NINDS/NIH, Staff Scientist
Neural Stem Cells, Signal Transduction, Neuro-degenerative disease
My focus is on signal transduction pathways that are of particular importance to stem cells. The purpose of this focus is to identify mechanisms that activate endogenous stem cells (for the purpose of regenerative interventions) and provide targets for novel anti-cancer approaches

Marios A Gavrielides
FDA, Research Fellow
Marios A. Gavrielides received his Bachelor's degree and Master's degree in Electrical Engineering in 1994 and 1996 respectively at the University of South Florida, Tampa Florida, and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Duke University, Durham, North Carolina, in 2001. He was a recipient of a Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer foundation Dissertation Award in 2000 for his PhD thesis work on automatic diagnosis of breast cancer. From 2002 to 2004 he was a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Informatics at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece. Currently, he is a Research Fellow at the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) Joint Laboratory for the Assessment of Medical Imaging Systems (LAMIS), at Rockville, Maryland. His research interests include medical imaging processing and the development of computer-aided detection and diagnosis methods in the fields of digital mammography, computed tomography, and microscopy imaging.
