  • 1992 - Fellow of Alfred P. Sloan Foundation

Overview

Anthony-Samuel LaMantia is affiliated with Virginia Tech in the United States and has contributed extensively to the fields of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and medicine.

Their research predominantly focuses on areas such as congenital heart defects, tracheal and airway disorders, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, genetics and neurodevelopmental disorders, olfactory and sensory function studies, genomic variations and chromosomal abnormalities, and developmental biology and gene regulation.

Frequent publication venues for their work include UNC Libraries, Human Molecular Genetics, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Annual Review of Neuroscience, and Frontiers in Physiology.

Key recent papers authored or co-authored by LaMantia are:

  • "Suckling, Feeding, and Swallowing: Behaviors, Circuits, and Targets for Neurodevelopmental Pathology," 2020, Annual Review of Neuroscience
  • "Why Does the Face Predict the Brain? Neural Crest Induction, Craniofacial Morphogenesis, and Neural Circuit Development," 2020, Frontiers in Physiology
  • "Selective disruption of trigeminal sensory neurogenesis and differentiation in a mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome," 2021, Disease Models & Mechanisms
  • "Transcriptional dysregulation in developing trigeminal sensory neurons in the LgDel mouse model of DiGeorge 22q11.2 deletion syndrome," 2020, Human Molecular Genetics
  • "Disrupted Coordination of Hypoglossal Motor Control in a Mouse Model of Pediatric Dysphagia in DiGeorge/22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome," 2020, eNeuro

LaMantia's work involves collaboration with several frequent co-authors, including Thomas M. Maynard, George J Augustine, Sally A. Moody, Lawrence C Katz, and James O McNamara.

Their research spans various subfields such as molecular biology, genetics, pulmonary and respiratory medicine, surgery, and sensory systems.

LaMantia was recognized as a Fellow of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation in 1992.
