Dr. Law earned a B.A. in Psychology from California State University, Northridge, a master’s degree from California State University, Long Beach, and a Ph.D. in Behavioral Neuroscience from Cornell University. Dr. Law joined the U-M Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department in 2025 as a Research Assistant Professor.

His research first investigated recovery from brain injury in food-storing and non-food-storing avian species, with his doctoral dissertation on contextual memory representations within limbic memory circuitry.

As a postdoctoral fellow at the Barrow Neurological Institute at Phoenix Children’s Hospital, he continued research in traumatic brain injury with specific focus on cognitive rehabilitation and neuroplasticity.

Dr. Law developed a novel cognitive rehabilitation paradigm for rodent models of TBI based on spatial navigation. His current research transitions multiple levels of analysis from pre-clinical animal models to neuroplastic mechanisms in cell culture and device development for human cognitive rehabilitation.

Dr. Law’s research focuses on cognitive rehabilitation after TBI, circuit reorganization, psychoplastogens, and translating preclinical cognitive rehabilitation paradigms to the clinical population.
