Abigail Myers received her Ph.D. in neuroscience and certificate in university teaching from West Virginia University, M.S. in biomedical sciences from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, and B.S. in kinesiology from Penn State University. Myers completed her postdoctoral fellowship at Brigham and Women’s Hospital/ Harvard Medical School where she investigated a role mitochondrial transport in migrating neurons during embryonic brain development. Her current research examines the role of mitochondrial transport proteins in neurodevelopmental diseases.
