 in Function\n\nTalk Abstract: Our brains are metabolically vulnerable\, as
  even brief interruptions in proper fueling lead to rapid degradation in c
 ognitive performance. My lab identified presynaptic function as one of the
  likely loci of this vulnerability and has leveraged the sensitivity of sy
 naptic vesicle recycling to metabolic compromise to dissect the molecular 
 underpinnings of how local ATP production is balanced during electrical ac
 tivity in axons. Our work has helped identify critical control points that
  in turn appear central to neurodegenerative diseases and offer new therap
 eutic approaches to neurodegeneration.\n\nTimothy Ryan\n\nTimothy Ryan\, P
 hD is a Rockefeller/Sloan-Kettering/Cornell Tri-Institutional Professor in
  the department of Biochemistry & Biophysics at Weill Cornell Medicine. He
  earned is BSc and MSc in Physics at McGill University and his PhD in Phys
 ics at Cornell University. Following postdoctoral work in the department o
 f Molecular & Cellular Physiology at Stanford he joined the faculty at Wei
 ll Cornell Medicine in 1997. He was an Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow\, a
  two-time recipient of the McKnight Technological Innovations in Neuroscie
 nce Award and a recipient of the NINDS Javits Neuroscience Investigator Aw
 ard. In 2017 he became a senior fellow (now termed Scholar) at the Howard 
 Hughes Medical Institute’s Janelia research campus. He is an elected membe
