Amit Bhattacharya

Professor

Dr. Bhattacharya’s recent research activities include topics of gene-environment (e.g. neurotoxicants, Pb, Mn, pesticide) interaction and its impact on human neuromuscular system as captured by non-invasive measures of postural balance in humans of all ages. In a recently completed NIH funded project he developed a non-invasive tool for quantifying dynamic bone quality in osteoporosis and currently being evaluated as a preclinical tool for detecting degenerative skeletal disorders.
