Research Interest
Neurodegeneration/neuroinflammation and their relationship to apoptosis: Our aim is to study neurodegeneration (acute and chronic) in relation to cell death and survival and the interplay between these processes to neuroinflammation. In previous studies we showed that neuronal activity can promote the survival of neuronal-like cells under stressed condition and studied the association of the Alzheimer's disease-associated proteins, the presenilins, with apoptosis.
