New PhD Student at TNU
We are happy to welcome Eleni Sia to TNU. She is enrolled as a PhD student under the supervision of Associate Professor Rodrigo Grassi-Oliveira.
Eleni Sia will be conducting the research project "Mapping the Epigenetic Signature of THC Exposure During Pregnancy in Offspring Neurocognitive Development."
More specifically, Eleni will investigate the (epi-)genetic framework that connects prenatal cannabis use with the subsequent brain development of the child.
In the project, she will be using both animal models and human brain organoids, and the aim is to increase our understanding of the correlation between prenatal cannabis consumption and neurological development in children.
