However, there are exceptions to the rule. Some areas of the brain continue to make new neurons throughout life. This neurogenesis is mediated by neural stem cells and our research goals are to understand how stem cell activity and fate are controlled. Ultimately, we hope to harness the nascent potential of stem cells to treat neurological injury and disease."},{"lastName":"Wyss-Coray","clinicalFocus":[],"appointments":[{"appointment":"Professor,Neurology & Neurological Sciences"},{"appointment":"Member,Child Health Research Institute"}],"primaryAppointment":"Professor,Neurology & Neurological Sciences","imageUrl":"http://stanfordhospital.org/profiles/viewImage?facultyId=3929&type=small&showNoImage","displayName":"Tony Wyss-Coray","firstName":"Tony","href":"http://med.stanford.edu/profiles/stanfordhospital/researcher/Tony_Wyss-Coray","researchInterest":"Use of genetic and molecular tools to dissect immune and inflammatory pathways in Alzheimer's and neurodegeneration."},{"lastName":"Murphy","clinicalFocus":[{"focus":"Psychiatry"},{"focus":"Geriatric Psychiatry"},{"focus":"Neuropsychiatry"},{"focus":"Dementia"},{"focus":"Mood Disorders"}],"appointments":[{"appointment":"Professor,Psychiatry & Behavioral Science - Psychiatry/Neuroscience/MSLS"}],"primaryAppointment":"Professor,Psychiatry & Behavioral Science - Psychiatry/Neuroscience/MSLS","imageUrl":"http://stanfordhospital.org/profiles/viewImage?facultyId=4515&type=small&showNoImage","displayName":"Greer Murphy M.D., Ph.D.","firstName":"Greer","href":"http://stanfordhospital.org/profiles/Greer_Murphy","researchInterest":"Pharmacogenetics of mood disorders and nicotine addiction.
