Research:
Our laboratory is focused on the functional investigation of genes and microRNAs related to human neurological diseases. We apply reverse genetic techniques, transcriptome investigation and phenotypic analyses using the zebrafish as a model organism.
In the BRAINN context, we aim to investigate molecular aspects underlying seizure and epilepsies, as well as, to study compounds that may have a potential therapeutic effect in seizure suppression.
