Short description

Our Research:
We conduct research into neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases with a strong translational focus. By bridging the gap between laboratory science and clinical practice, our goal is to turn scientific discoveries into concrete benefits for patients.

Key Areas of Focus:
• Biomarkers: Studying new tools for diagnostics, prognostics, and therapeutic efficacy.
• Patient Cohorts: Building vital foundational knowledge through the analysis of a comprehensive patient cohort.
