The purpose the  Emily Connell  Neuroscience website and blog, is to showcase the research work of Emily Connell, and to invite interest, questions and sponsorship in the research that she is undertaking, or may undertake in the future

Professional Bio - Emily Connell Neuroscientist:

During her graduate course at University of Bath, Somerset, England, she attended a research laboratory at University of Arizona, Phoenix, USA for a 12 month placement. There she undertook research studying innovative means of assessing and treating brain injury.  She presented her work at an international neuroscience convention at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA in 2018 for this work, which was well received.

Emily Connell research Neuroscientist

She is currently undertaking a PhD course and research at University of East Anglia (UEA) at Norwich, England investigating the relevance of gut-brain connections in early cognitive decline and dementia. She has presented her research at International Conferences in Palma, Italy and Lisbon, Portugal, and is the first named author of: Microbial-derived metabolites as a risk factor of age-related cognitive decline and dementia, and this paper has been referenced in papers authored by other scientists in this field.  More…
