Eileen completed her undergraduate degree in neuroscience at UCLA. During that time, she established her interest in research while working with Marie-Francoise Chesselet on the Thy1-aSyn model focusing on non-motor symptoms. She then earned her PhD at Oregon Health & Science University, where she assessed the role of apolipoprotein E isoforms in the risk and disease progression of PD and AD. Eileen is the project manager for Team Kaplitt.
