Dr. Gault has an interest in human genetics. Her research is currently focused on the genetics of stroke, including the genes contributing to cerebral cavernous malformations. She is just now completing a separate NIH study investigating the characterization of a treatment-response biomarker in patients with schizophrenia, addressing a critical barrier to successfully treating schizophrenia; determining the optimal dose of antipsychotic medications. Previous studies that she has published focus on the genetic components of these diseases.
