Eric Brengel is a PhD candidate with a deep interest in repetitive concussion-related neurodegeneration. His current research bridges preclinical diffusion and functional MRI, histology, and behavioral assays to investigate the neuropathology of repetitive mild head injury, as well as the therapeutic potential of psychedelic treatment and aerobic exercise intervention. Previously, he studied exercise-induced myelin plasticity under the mentorship of Dr. Anna Klintsova at the University of Delaware (M.S. 2022, B.S./B.A. 2021).
