Research Groups
Biology of Astrocytes Research Group
The Biology of Astrocytes Research Group aims to understand the role of astrocytes in regulating physiological processes in the brain and the consequences of their disturbances.
Cancer Neurophysiology Research Group
The Cancer Neurophysiology Research Group combines neurobiology with oncology. Our goal is to understand the neurogenic regulation of tumorigenesis and tumor-associated pain.
Immunotherapy Research Group
The Immunotherapy Research Group focuses on developing anticancer therapies based on the immune system. We concentrate on methods for stimulating, modifying, and enhancing immune responses that lead to the elimination of cancer cells.
Synaptogenesis Research Group
The Synaptogenesis Research Group conducts multidisciplinary studies aimed at understanding the mechanisms that regulate the formation and organization of synapses in the central nervous system and in skeletal muscles.
Translational Neuropsychiatry Research Group
The Translational Neuropsychiatry Research Group (TREND Lab), led by PhD Ali Jawaid, investigates how environmental factors shape vulnerability to neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders across the lifespan and across generations.
