Paulo Koeberle
PhD
Dr. Koeberle completed his Ph.D in neurosciences at McMaster University in 2001. He then studied under Dr. Mathias Bähr at the University of Göttingen Germany as a postdoctoral fellow. After his final postdoctoral studies under Dr. Lyanne Schlichter (Toronto Western Research Institute) he was hired as an Assistant Professor in the Division of Anatomy. Dr. Koeberle’s research is focused on the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration in the adult central nervous system. Specific focus is placed on traumatic brain injury and stroke (ischemia), through the use of injury models of the visual system. Dr. Koeberle currently teaches Neuroanatomy for the Department of Physical Therapy, is the course director for the Physician's Assistant Program and contributed in the undergraduate stream at the University of Toronto.
