Ali Izadi, PhD

Dr. Ali Izadi is an assistant project scientist in the Department of Neurological Surgery in the School of Medicine. It is expected that in a mass casualty situation from organophosphate exposure there would be pediatric cases, yet there has been little research on how to treat this population. Dr. Izadi used his pilot project award to develop a pediatric animal model of DFP acute intoxication with the long-term goal of using it to improve patient outcomes.
