Postdoctoral Fellows

 

Kun-Ze Lee, PhD

Kun-Ze Lee, PhD
[cv]

Kun-Ze Lee, PhD is a post-doctoral associate in the Department of Physical Therapy (mentor: David Fuller, PhD). He received his PhD degree in National Taiwan Normal University, Taiwan. His reseach focuses on neurophysiology and neuroplasticity of respiratory-related neurons in response to chemoreceptor activation and spinal cord injury.


Milap Sandhu, PT, PhD

Milap Sandhu, PT, PhD
[cv]

Milap is a post-doctoral associate in the laboratory of David Fuller, PhD. He received his physical therapy degree from India and his doctoral degree in rehabilitation science from the University of Florida. His research interests address neuroplasticity and respiratory recovery in diseases/injuries that affect respiration. He is currently involved with a study investigating gene replacement in a fatal disorder called Pompe disease that affects nerves and muscles in children. He is particularly focused on correcting gene deficiency for improvement of breathing in transgenic mouse models of the disease. In addition, he is also studying stem cell transplantation for spinal cord injury repair. Specifically, he is investigating the efficacy of adult/post-natal derived neural precursor cells for respiratory recovery after cervical spinal cord injury.

Nicole Tester, PhD

Fan Ye, PhD

Fan is a post-doctoral associate in the Muscle Physiology Laboratory in the Department of Physical Therapy (mentor: Krista Vandenborne, PhD, PT.) He received his PhD degree in Rehabilitation Science from the University of Florida. His research focuses on understanding molecular signatures associated with muscle remodeling in response to rehabilitation in humans (ankle fracture patients) and implementing therapeutic strategies to augment muscle rehabilitation by using animals models (cast immobilization and spinal cord injury.)
