Sargent College offers both undergraduate and graduate programs to prepare students for a broad range of careers in health care and rehabilitation sciences including medicine and public health as well as professional preparation in athletic training, nutrition, occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech-language pathology. In addition, doctoral degree candidates can pursue an array of programs leading to a PhD or ScD.

Postnatal development and maturation of layer 1 in the lateral prefrontal cortex and its disruption in autism
(BMC, 2019-03-13)Autism is a neurodevelopmental connectivity disorder characterized by cortical network disorganization and imbalance in excitation/inhibition. However, little is known about the development of autism pathology and the ... -
Evolution, development, and organization of the cortical connectome
(2019-05)Hypotheses and theoretical frameworks are needed to organize and interpret the wealth of data on the organization of cortical networks in humans and animals in the light of development, evolution, and selective vulnerability ... -
Parallel driving and modulatory pathways link the prefrontal cortex and thalamus
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2007-09-05)Pathways linking the thalamus and cortex mediate our daily shifts from states of attention to quiet rest, or sleep, yet little is known about their architecture in high-order neural systems associated with cognition, emotion ... -
Organization of primate amygdalar-thalamic pathways for emotions
(2020-02)Studies on the thalamus have mostly focused on sensory relay nuclei, but the organization of pathways associated with emotions is not well understood. We addressed this issue by testing the hypothesis that the primate ... -
Altered neural connectivity in excitatory and inhibitory cortical circuits in autism
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2013-09-27)Converging evidence from diverse studies suggests that atypical brain connectivity in autism affects in distinct ways short- and long-range cortical pathways, disrupting neural communication and the balance of excitation ... -
Noninvasive neurostimulation of left ventral motor cortex enhances sensorimotor adaptation in speech production
Sensorimotor adaptation¬—enduring changes to motor commands due to sensory feedback—allows speakers to match their articulations to intended speech acoustics. How the brain integrates auditory feedback to modify speech ... -
Identification of pseudolysin (lasB) as an aciduric gluten-degrading enzyme with high therapeutic potential for celiac disease
(Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc., 2015-06)OBJECTIVES Immunogenic gluten proteins implicated in celiac disease (CD) largely resist degradation by human digestive enzymes. Here we pursued the isolation of gluten-degrading organisms from human feces, aiming at ... -
Development and validation of objective, passive, dietary assessment method for estimating food and nutrient intake in households in low and middle-income countries (LMICs): a study protocol
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-02)BACKGROUND: Undernutrition is a major concern in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), but the full extent of the problem remains unknown largely due to the lack of accurate assessment methods. OBJECTIVE: This study ... -
A lesion and connectivity-based hierarchical model of chronic aphasia recovery dissociates patients and healthy controls
(2019)Traditional models of left hemisphere stroke recovery propose that reactivation of remaining ipsilesional tissue is optimal for language processing whereas reliance on contralesional right hemisphere homologues is less ... -
Changes in task-based effective connectivity in language networks following rehabilitation in post-stroke patients with aphasia
(FRONTIERS RESEARCH FOUNDATION, 2015-06-09)In this study, we examined regions in the left and right hemisphere language network that were altered in terms of the underlying neural activation and effective connectivity subsequent to language rehabilitation. Eight ...
