Dr. Marcogliese joined the University of Manitoba as an assistant professor of biochemistry and medical genetics within the Rady Faculty of Health Sciences in June 2022. His research focuses on the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying neurological diseases, specifically exploring the etiology of conditions such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Parkinson’s disease. He employs Drosophila melanogaster models to assess the functional consequences of patient variants in vivo. Additionally, Dr. Marcogliese's work aids in identifying genes responsible for rare disorders and offers insight into common conditions, utilizing a range of techniques for phenotyping and drug testing. Previously, he completed postdoctoral training at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, where his research helped identify novel human disease genes linked to neurodegeneration. His academic background includes a PhD in Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience from the University of Ottawa and various bachelor's degrees from Carleton University.
