Dr. Ian 孟 received his ScB and PhD in 神经科学 at 布朗大学.  Following completion of his PhD, he worked as a postdoctoral fellow with Dr. Howard Fields in the Department of Neurology at the University of California, 旧金山(UCSF), studying the brain circuits mediating the analgesic properties of cannabinoids.  Dr. 孟 joined the University of New England (UNE) in 2003 where he is currently a professor of Biomedical 科学s, Director of the Center for Excellence in the 神经科学s (CEN), and the Director of the National Institute of 健康 (NIH) funded Center for the Study of 疼痛 and Sensory Function.  在全球网络赌博平台, he has maintained a continuously funded research program with the aim of understanding trigeminal sensory processing underlying headache and ocular 疼痛 and homeostasis, with an emphasis on two conditions: headache and dry eye.   Dr. 孟's lab is currently investigating sensory neurons that regulate tearing and ocular 疼痛 under both normal and pathological conditions such as dry eye.  Additional projects are exploring the ability of corneal afferents to promote corneal healing by providing trophic support to the injured cornea in dry eye.

研究

目前的研究

博士的总体目标. 孟's research is to understand trigeminal sensory processing underlying headache and ocular 疼痛 and homeostasis, with an emphasis on two conditions: medication overuse headache and dry eye syndrome. Dr. 孟's lab is currently investigating sensory neurons that regulate tearing and ocular 疼痛 under both normal and pathological conditions such as dry eye. 在与头痛相关的研究中. 孟's research aims to understand the neuroplastic changes induced by the chronic use of analgesics, as such treatments have been shown to transform episodic migraines into chronic daily headache.
