Anne Frances Buckley
Assistant Professor of Pathology

My basic research focus is on neurogenic stem cells and their involvement in brain development and brain tumors. I work in mouse models using inducible in vivo genetic systems, live imaging, and tissue culture, in addition to histological and biochemical methods.
My clinical research interests include neuromuscular diseases. I collaborate with colleagues at Duke on basic and translational research in this area.
