Core Leadership
HYDER A. JINNAH, MD, PHD
Scientific Director
Professor, Neurology, Human Genetics and Pediatrics
Dr. Jinnah received dual BS degrees in psychology and zoology from Duke University, and M.D. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of California in San Diego. He completed a clinical residency in Neurology at Johns Hopkins. Since 2009, Dr. Jinnah has been Professor of Neurology, Human Genetics and Pediatrics in the Emory School of Medicine. He has more than 20 years’ experience in molecular genetics and biochemistry. He was involved in the early development of HPLC-based protocols to measure monoamine neurotransmitters and their metabolites. These methods have proven to be quite robust and have now been applied to samples from a variety of sources including extracts from brain tissue (e.g. mouse, rat, human, Drosophila) a variety of cultured cell types (e.g. rodent and human neuroblastoma, induced pluripotent stem cells), and other biological fluids (e.g. cerebrospinal fluid, blood, urine). He was also responsible for development of HPLC-based protocols to measure all bioactive purines in a single run. These include adenine nucleotides such as ATP, guanine nucleotides such as GTP, and their many metabolites. He also has experience with development of novel HPLC-based methods for other small organic molecules.
