Meet Our Team
Dr. Justin Varholick
Principal Investigator
Dr. Varholick (Dr. V) holds a Ph.D. in Biomedical Science/Applied Ethology from the University of Bern in Switzerland and an M.A. in Biopsychology from UNC Greensboro. He trained in regenerative biology during his postdoc under Prof. Malcolm Maden at the University of Florida, and was supported by an Early Postdoctoral grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation and an NIH Training Grant in Regenerative Medicine. His work has contributed to integrating animal behavior and phenotypic variability into basic biomedical research and establishing new model systems and frameworks to integrate animal behavior and phenotypic variablity into tissue regeneration research.
Your Name Here!
Graduate Researcher
Driven by a passion for understanding the body's ability to heal, I have a deep curiosity about how the brain responds to injury and healing. My current project focuses on understanding skin regeneration in neonatal mice, and whether their cutaneous nerves regain endoneurial sheathing and sensation after injury.
Your Name Here!
Undergraduate Researcher
As a young scientist, I'm captivated by the complexity of the nervous system and the incredible potential for regeneration. In The Varholick Lab, I'm learning to transform my classroom knowledge into hands-on discovery and contribute to human knowledge on regeneration.
