Rate My Professor Simone Carron

Carron's research specializations encompass traumatic brain injury (TBI), inhibition, behaviour, and epilepsy. Her work utilizes rat models to explore neuronal alterations and their behavioral outcomes. She has authored several peer-reviewed articles, including "Early life adversity accelerates epileptogenesis and enhances depression-like behaviors in rats" (Experimental Neurology, August 2022, with Rupasinghe, R., Dezsi, G., Ozturk, E., Hudson, M. R., Casillas-Espinosa, P. M., and Jones, N. C.; 9 citations); "Inhibitory neuronal changes following a mixed diffuse-focal model of traumatic brain injury" (Journal of Comparative Neurology, February 2020, with Sun, M., Shultz, S. R., and Rajan, R.; 15 citations); "Cognitive deficits in a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy using touchscreen-based translational tools" (Epilepsia, August 2019, with Dezsi, G., Ozturk, E., Nithianantharajah, J., and Jones, N. C.; 24 citations); "Immediate and Medium-term Changes in Cortical and Hippocampal Inhibitory Neuronal Populations after Diffuse TBI" (Neuroscience, September 2018, with Yan, E. B., Allitt, B. J., and Rajan, R.; 12 citations); and "Differential susceptibility of cortical and sub-cortical inhibitory neurons and astrocytes in the long term following diffuse traumatic brain injury" (Journal of Comparative Neurology, December 2016, with Yan, E. B., Alwis, D. S., and Rajan, R.; 31 citations). Carron has produced a total of seven research outputs documented in her university profile, advancing knowledge on post-injury inhibitory circuitry, epileptogenesis, cognitive deficits, and depression-like behaviors in preclinical models. As an education-focused academic, she has been affiliated with the Department of Physiology since October 2017.
