Moss Lab Research Projects

Dr. Kathryn Moss earned her BS degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology from the University of Michigan and her PhD in Biochemistry, Cell and Developmental Biology from Emory University. She completed her dissertation with Dr. Gary Bassell studying post-transcriptional mechanisms of neuronal development and neurological disease and a postdoctoral fellowship with Dr. Ahmet Höke at Johns Hopkins University studying CMT1A and HNPP pathogenesis. Her research endeavors were enhanced by her involvement in the Peripheral Nerve Society where she served for multiple years as a member and chair of the Junior Committee. She began her position as Assistant Professor with NextGen Precision Health at the University of Missouri in April 2024 and continues to study inherited dysmyelinating peripheral neuropathies. Dr. Moss brings a unique perspective and dedication to her work due to her personal history with CMT1A as a patient.
