Topic: From Mouse to Man – How Basic Science Can Directly Impact Outcomes for Patients with Peripheral Nerve Neuropathy

Presenter:
Jenna-Lynn Senger, MD, PhD, FRCSC; Clinical Assistant Professor in the UBC Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic Surgery

Bio:

Jenna-Lynn Senger is originally from Saskatoon, where she completed her medical degree at the University of Saskatchewan. During her plastic surgery residency at the University of Alberta, she additionally obtained a PhD. Her thesis used animal models to identify and establish a perioperative strategy to optimize peripheral nerve regeneration, and conditioning electrical stimulation (CES). This technique is now successfully being translated into clinical practice. Jenna-Lynn has continued to remain extremely active in the basic science laboratory and plans to continue her ongoing research on neuropathic pain here in Vancouver. Upon completion of her residency, she was accepted into the prestigious microsurgical fellowship at Ohio State University. She is passionate about bridging the gap between basic sciences and clinical applications. 

Learning Objectives

  • To describe how clinical practice informs basic science research, and conversely how science influences patient care
  • To recognize perioperative techniques that enhance nerve regeneration
  • To understand ongoing research aimed at addressing neuropathic pain
