OverviewAI-generated summary
Susan M. Burks' research investigates mechanisms of neurotoxicity and neurodegenerative diseases, with a focus on dopaminergic systems and the potential impact of viral infections on the central nervous system. Her work has explored the role of autophagy and protein aggregation in dopaminergic degeneration, using primary human neuronal models. Additionally, she has examined the potential for SARS-CoV-2 to infect the central nervous system, investigating pathways such as the olfactory bulb and the blood-brain barrier. Her research also includes the evaluation of circulating biomarkers for neurotoxicity in rodent models. Burks has collaborated with researchers at the National Center for Toxicological Research, including John Talpos and Manuel Alejandro Ramirez-Lee, on several publications. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 6 across 10 publications with over 300 citations.
