Director for Residency Education

Dr. Redgrave received his B.A. from St. John's College and his M.D. from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He completed an internship in general internal medicine at Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center and psychiatric residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he served as chief resident. Dr. Redgrave is an attending psychiatrist with clinical expertise in eating disorders. His research focuses on neuroimaging of anorexia using MRI techniques, eating disorder treatment outcomes; he is also developing with basic science collaborators in our department techniques to use imaging to study animal models of eating disorders. 

Dr. Redgrave was faculty member in the Colleges Advisory Program, where he mentored medical students and taught clinical skills from 2009-2013. He was Associate Director for Residency Education from 2012-2013 and has been Director for Residency Education from 2013.

Associate Director for Residency Education

Dr. Anne Ruble is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Dr. Ruble earned her medical and M.P.H. degrees at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. She completed both a residency – serving as chief resident for one year – and a fellowship in psychiatry at Johns Hopkins. She joined the Johns Hopkins faculty in 2013. Her research interests include affective (mood) disorders and depression in adolescents.

Assistant Director for Residency Education

Dr. Lipsey received his B.A. from the Johns Hopkins University and his M.D. from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

Director for Residency Research Education

In their study of neuropsychiatric disorders, Dr. Ross and his research team have focused on Huntington's disease and Parkinson's disease, and now are using insights from these disorders to approach more complex diseases such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.  They use biophysical and biochemical techniques, cell models, and transgenic mouse models to understand disease processes, and to provide targets for development of rational therapeutics.  These then can provide a basis for developing small molecule interventions, which can be used both as probes to study biology, and if they have favorable drug-like properties, for potential therapeutic development.  We have used two strategies for identifying lead compounds.  The first is the traditional path of identification of specific molecular targets, such as enzymes like the LRRK2 kinase of Parkinson’s disease.  Once structure is known, computational approaches or fragment based lead discovery, in collaboration, can be used.  The second is to conduct phenotypic screens using cell models, or in a collaboration, natural products in a yeast model.  Once a lead compound is identified, we use cell models for initial tests of compounds, then generate analogs, and take compounds that look promising to preclinical therapeutic studies in animal models.  The ultimate goal is to develop therapeutic strategies that can be brought to human clinical trials, and we have pioneered in developing biomarkers and genetic testing for developing strategies.
