Andy Cooper
I am a postdoctoral associate in the Weir lab. I completed my PhD at the University of Nottingham supervised by Dr Gareth Hathway and Prof Vicky Chapman (2013-2017) and trained as a postdoctoral researcher with Prof Bradley Taylor at the University of Pittsburgh (2017-2020). My interests lie in identifying the mechanisms involved in the transition from acute to chronic pain, and my project here aims to dissect the relative contributions of discrete populations of primary afferents to the maintenance of ongoing neuropathic pain.
