“I am interested in studying networks of different cell types during neurodevelopment as well as neurodegeneration, as two sides of the same coin, in order to understand how a healthy network responds to be able to influence therapy. I am particularly interested in using novel and/or improved molecular vectors, to develop new therapeutical approaches, and to investigate new technological advances.”
