About

Cynthia Shannon Weickert is a Professor at Upstate Medical University in the United States. Her research primarily focuses on neuroinflammation and neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Recent publications have explored topics such as altered angiogenesis, neuronal subpopulation changes, and the effects of antipsychotic medication on hormonal levels and cognition. She employs molecular techniques and RNA sequencing to investigate the underlying mechanisms of these complex conditions.
