Dr. Travis Thomson is currently an assistant professor of Neurobiology at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. The focus of his research is on the regulation of synaptic plasticity via endogenous retroviral/transposable elements control, using Drosophila as his model system. Dr. Thomson received his bachelor's degree in Molecular Genetics from the University of Alberta and his PhD degree in Developmental Biology from McGill University. He then continued his career in academia with three postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Massachusetts Medical School Worcester, Yale University School of Medicine, and Yale University Stem Cell Center. Throughout his career, Dr. Thomson has published 18 peer reviewed articles in top tier journals focusing stem cell formation, neural structure and function, and small RNA function.
