Research Interests:
As a scholar of Jewish history, eastern European history, and of early modern religious and cultural history, I specialize in Jewish-Christian relations. My first book, Jews and Heretics in Catholic Poland: A Beleaguered Church in the Post Reformation Era, published by Cambridge University Press in 2006 (pbk, 2009), challenges the perception that the Catholic Church triumphed in Poland and demonstrates the superficiality of the re-Catholicization of the ruling elites, whose economic interests trumped their religious loyalties. My new book, Sinners on Trial: Jews and Sacrilege after the Reformation (Harvard University Press, 2011) tells a story of affirmation of Catholic dogmas after the Reformation, not necessarily though religious education and propaganda but through the application of criminal law, and the courts' treatment of "the sacred" and, thus, also of the "sacrilege." The book addresses one of the most notorious examples of "sacrilege" -- the accusation that Jews desecrated consecrated communion wafers. "Sinners on Trial" combines political, legal, and cultural historical approaches. Far more than the Church's efforts to educate the laity, the lay courts' classification of Catholic spaces as the only "sacred spaces" and their adjudication of crimes of "sacrilege," were crucial for the (re)Catholicisation of Poland, and the shaping of the country's religious identity. "Sinners on Trial" crucially casts a new light on the most infamous case of sacrilege, the accusations against Jews for stealing and desecrating the host, situating it within a broader context of the politics of crime -- most specifically that of sacrilege, illuminating its post-Reformation character.

At Wesleyan, Elijah Huge leads the architecture studio track and the atelier North Studio within the Department of Art & Art History. Focused on developing and producing research and conceptually driven projects with real-world clients, North Studio is both a locus for architectural design education within the context of Wesleyan University's liberal arts curriculum and a laboratory for design research and fabrication.

Research Interests:
Loss of GABAergic interneurons contributes to the development of spontaneous seizures in severe human temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and in rodent models of TLE. We are interested in determining the conditions for stem cell-based repair of the nervous system damage. The main project in the lab focuses on limbic system repair in rodent models of temporal lobe epilepsy, using grafts of GABAergic interneuron progenitors derived from the fetal telencephalon or from embryonic stem cells. We have discovered that GABAergic progenitor grafts suppress spontaneous seizures for extended periods of time in the rodent brain. We have also demonstrated long-term survival, migration, and integration of ES cell-derived neurons in the adult hippocampus. The questions we are now pursuing are: 1) what are the cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating long-term survival and integration of transplanted cells in the adult brain? 2) what are the major differences in neural repair capacity of GABAergic neural progenitors derived from ES cells vs. fetal brain? Our research combines in vitro methods with in vivo cellular, molecular and electrophysiological studies with transgenic and knockout mice.
