Dr. Manjarrez's research includes aging, neurodegenerative, and neuromuscular degenerative models and is centered on utilizing the model organism, Caenorhabditis elegans for mechanistic and drug discovery. Additionally, his research involves measuring neural activity in the C. elegans focused on mapping the functional logic of neural circuits in C. elegans neural networks. This is crucial for understanding the neural networks involved in decision-making and locomotion, with implications for advances in computer modeling and simulation.

The Manjarrez lab scope of research has further been extended incorporating projects in agricultural research enhancing its potential impact into diverse scientific fields.
