Eldin Jasarevic ia an Assistant Professor at the School of Medicine, University of Maryland. He received his PhD in neuroscience at the University of Missouri and the Thompson Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders studying the combined effect of maternal stress and diet on sex differences in brain development. Currently he is a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Dr. Tracy Bale at the University of Pennsylvania. Ongoing research focuses on leveraging methods from neuroscience, microbial genomics, immunology and computational biology to identify mechanisms by which maternal adversity impacts the early-in-life development of the gut-brain-immune axis of offspring, and contribute to increased risk for neuropsychiatric disorders across the lifespan. He is a recipient of several awards including selection as a Kavli Fellow of the Kavli Foundation and National Academy of Sciences.
