Research Focus:
-
Our focus is on deepening the neuropathological substrate of neurodegenerative diseases, especially the detection of early tissue changes at the cellular level, propagation of the pathology and molecular basis of neurodegeneration; We support the development of biomarkers.

Methods:
- Neuropathology: Conventional histological stains, immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, immunofluorescence/confocal microscopy; molecular biological including genetic studies; Neurochemistry: ELISA, RTQuIC.
