One focus is on oligodendrocytes and myelin, the primary target of the immune attacks in multiple sclerosis. We aim at identifying the mechanisms of how
Another focus is on microglia, and their functions in homeostasis, aging and disease. We study the mechanisms of neuroinflammation and how microglia and other immune cells damage or restore nervous system function in neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases.
The lab is part of the Institute of Neuronal Cell Biology, belongs to the TUM Faculty of Medicine, and is affiliated with the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases and the Institute for Stroke and Dementia Research. Our lab is located at the Center of Stroke and Dementia Research at Campus Grosshadern in Munich.
