Muir4 1Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University, 2Department of Radiology, University of Colorado School of Medicine, 3Department of Radiology, Montefiore-Einstein, 4Department of Radiology, School of Medicine, Stony Brook University We have developed techniques for mapping the visual cortex function utilizing more of the visual field than is commonly used. This approach has the potential to enhance the evaluation of vision disorders and eye diseases. Biology Intestinal Epithelial Regeneration in Response to Ionizing Irradiation Emilia J. Orzechowska-Licari1, Joseph F. LaComb1, Michael Giarrizzo1, Vincent W. Yang1,2, Agnieszka B. Bialkowska1 1Department of Medicine, Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University, 2Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University The gastrointestinal tract is one of the most sensitive organs to injury upon radiotherapeutic cancer treatments. It is simultaneously an organ system with one of the highest regenerative capacities following such insults. The presented protocol describes an efficient method to study the regenerative capacity of the intestinal epithelium.
