Overview

Charles A. Greer is affiliated with Yale University in the United States. Their primary research domain is neuroscience, with a strong focus on sensory systems, neurology, and molecular biology. Their work encompasses developmental neuroscience and cellular and molecular neuroscience as well.

Greer's research extensively covers topics related to olfactory and sensory function studies, neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration mechanisms, and neurogenesis and neuroplasticity mechanisms. Additional areas include neurobiology and insect physiology research, biochemical analysis and sensing techniques, genetics and neurodevelopmental disorders, and mechanisms of RNA and protein synthesis.

They have published numerous papers in a variety of academic venues. Frequent publication venues include:

  • Faculty Opinions - Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • eNeuro
  • eLife
  • The Journal of Comparative Neurology

Recent papers authored or co-authored by Greer include:

  • "α-Synuclein Pathology and Reduced Neurogenesis in the Olfactory System Affect Olfaction in a Mouse Model of Parkinson's Disease," 2023, Journal of Neuroscience
  • "An Evolutionary Microcircuit Approach to the Neural Basis of High Dimensional Sensory Processing in Olfaction," 2021, Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
  • "Microglia Maintain Homeostatic Conditions in the Developing Rostral Migratory Stream," 2023, eNeuro
  • "Predicting brain organization with a computational model: 50-year perspective on lateral inhibition and oscillatory gating by dendrodendritic synapses," 2020, Journal of Neurophysiology
  • "Inflammatory Response and Defects on Myelin Integrity in the Olfactory System of K18hACE2 Mice Infected with SARS-CoV-2," 2024, eNeuro

Greer has collaborated frequently with several co-authors in their research efforts. These include:

  • Eduardo Martín-López
  • Sarah J. Meller
  • Kimberly Han
  • Teresa Liberia
  • Natalie J. Spence

In 2016, they were recognized as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).
