Dr. Elizabeth Buttermore is currently the Director of Translational In Vitro Models in the Rosamund Stone Zander Translational Neuroscience Center at Boston Children’s Hospital (BCH) where she leads the Human Neuron Core and Neurological Repository Core. Elizabeth has 10 years of experience in phenotypic assay development using high content imaging and multielectrode array approaches. One of her goals at BCH is to help standardize the way the field obtains and interprets phenotypic data and to help researchers across academia and industry move their research forward. She completed her postdoctoral work in Clifford Woolf’s lab at BCH where she developed protocols for differentiating nociceptive neurons from human fibroblasts and iPSCs and used them to develop models for neuropathy and neuropathic pain. Prior to coming to BCH, Elizabeth completed her PhD in Neurobiology in 2012 at the University of North Carolina, in the lab of Manzoor Bhat, where she studied the organization and maintenance of molecular domains in myelinated axons.
