About the speaker:

Prof. Andrew Levy received his BA Summa Cum Laude from Yale University in Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry in 1982. He received a MSTP scholarship for his MD PHD training (1982-1990) at Johns Hopkins Medical School performing his PHD under Nobel Laureate Daniel Nathans working on the identification of a growth factor now known as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor. He completed internal medicine residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital (1990-1992) and a cardiovascular fellowship at Brigham and Women’s Hospital at Harvard Medical School (1992-1996).  He is a tenured professor at Technion Faculty of Medicine, Technion Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa, Israel. His current focus of research is on developing treatments for IQSEC2 disease – a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with drug-resistant epilepsy, autism, and severe intellectual disability. Founder of IQSEC2 Research and Advocacy Foundation, a volunteer group of parents working towards providing support for parents, increasing awareness of IQSEC2.

About the speaker:

Dr. Brittany G. Travers joined the faculty of University of Wisconsin-Madison in August of 2014 as an assistant professor in the Occupational Therapy Program in the Department of Kinesiology. In her first years as faculty, she has established a strong track record of independent funding and publication, and she was bestowed the Young Investigator Award by the International Society for Autism Research in May of 2016. Dr. Travers’s research program, housed at the Waisman Center on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus (http://www.waisman.wisc.edu/motor), combines neuroimaging measures with quantitative measures of motor function, cognition, and daily living skills in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders. Her work is inherently interdisciplinary, as Dr. Travers is a trained cognitive psychologist who received interdisciplinary postdoctoral training in developmental disorders and biomedical physics.

About the speaker:

Aisha S. Dickerson, PhD, MSPH, is an associate professor at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. She is an environmental neuroepidemiologist with primary research interests in environmental risk factors for neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. Specifically, she studies combined environmental and occupational exposures across the life course and subsequent individual and transgenerational neurological outcomes, including autism spectrum disorder, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and dementia. Between earning her BS and MSPH, Dr. Dickerson worked for the Jefferson County Department of Health where she served on emergency response teams after Hurricane Katrina and during the H1N1 (Swine Flu) pandemic. Prior to joining BSPH, she also completed postdoctoral training at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Currently, her research investigates joint environmental and psychosocial stressors in under resourced communities. She is the PI of an NIEHS-funded study of gene-environment interaction with parental occupation exposures and autism in offspring. She also has several ongoing studies of joint exposures utilizing data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS), the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), and the Environmental influences of Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) project.
