Biography

Angela Scott is an Assistant Professor at the University of Guelph in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology. Her research focuses on neural communication and the intricate choreography of signals required for the formation and preservation of neural function. She examines the interactions between neurons and glial cells, which are essential for wiring the nervous system and performing various functions that determine the maintenance and re-growth of connections. Scott employs an integrative comparative approach to study glial-neuronal interactions across different biological levels and model species, including zebrafish and mice. Her ongoing research aims to uncover the dynamic relationships that underlie neurological dysfunction and developmental regenerative processes, particularly how glial cells mediate mechanisms related to development and disease, as well as stress responses in the central nervous system.
