trained as a postdoctoral fellow with Patrick Brown from 1990-1993
where he developed genomic mismatch scanning and initiated the lab
development of DNA microarrays for genomic applications. At UCLA, Dr.
Nelson has continued to be interested in technology development and
application of genomics to cancer biology and common human diseases
with active research areas in Autism, ADHD, vertigo and brain cancers.
He developed and continues to direct the UCLA DNA Microarray Facility
which provides access to whole genome expression array analysis for
faculty on campus and for the NIH Neuroscience Blueprint.
