Ian Weaver is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at Dalhousie University. His interdisciplinary research focuses on behavioral epigenetics and the molecular mechanisms underlying gene regulation. Current projects explore the role of chromatin remodeling and DNA methylation in relation to social, emotional, and cognitive development. His lab studies altered metabolism and gene regulatory networks in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, employing advanced molecular, cellular, and behavioral assays to understand how external and internal factors influence neurological development. He collaborates with various departments and is involved with the Brain Repair Centre and the Canadian Developmental Origins Health Disease Network, contributing to the integration of epigenetic profiling in biomedical research. Dr. Weaver's extensive publication record reflects his ongoing commitment to advancing knowledge in epigenetics, neurobiology, and the behavioral implications of molecular mechanisms.
