Dominic J. Acri studies how genes are switched on and off in the brain, using techniques that measure gene activity in individual cells and map it to specific locations in tissue (single-cell and spatial transcriptomics). Much of this work focuses on neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, examining how inflammation, immune brain cells (microglia), and genetic risk factors contribute to disease. Earlier publications also covered animal behavior and biology, including sloths and malaria mosquitoes.
