Research summary
AI-generated

Kris M. Martens studies how traumatic brain injury affects the brain and behavior in animal models, with particular focus on decision-making, impulsivity, and memory changes after head injury. Recent work examines the gut microbiome as a factor influencing symptoms and recovery after brain injury, alongside earlier work on Alzheimer's-related pathology and human memory rehabilitation training. This research combines rodent injury models with behavioral testing to understand cognitive and neuropathological consequences of brain trauma.
