Kyle Stokes obtained his PhD in 2021 at the University of Windsor under the supervision of Phillip Karpowicz where he studied how circadian rhythms influence intestinal stem and cancer cells using mice and primary derived organoids.
Currently he is working as a postdoctoral fellow in the Parent lab. His research projects focus on the effect of STXBP1 and SYNGAP1 mutations in epilepsy, the role of autophagy in brain development, using iPSC derived brain organoids. He is also interested in studying retinal regeneration using iPSC derived retinal organoids. Additionally, he is interested in enhancing brain organoid maturation through vascularization.
In his spare time, he enjoys exercising, watching movies and reading about science and philosophy.
