Dr. Aaron Schain, PhD, is an Instructor in the Department of Anesthesia, Critical Care, and Pain at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA. Dr. Schain studies inflammation in the meninges using cortical spreading depression as a migraine model in rats and mice, concentrating on confocal and multiphoton imaging of vasculature, blood plasma proteins, immune cells, neurites, and intracranial/intracortical spaces. His work has connected migraine to the brain's "glymphatic" system, a system for drainage of waste protein products, and activation of immune cells both inside and outside the blood brain barrier.
