The Department of Basic and Clinical Neuroscience aims to transform treatment possibilities for individuals with neurological and psychiatric conditions while motivating future neuroscience researchers. Our goal is to bridge fundamental biological studies with clinical investigations to enhance comprehension of disease processes, discover innovative treatment approaches, and evaluate emerging therapies. This objective requires strong partnerships between researchers and medical professionals addressing shared challenges.

Our studies investigate the cellular and molecular foundations of neurodegenerative and neurodevelopmental conditions such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, motor neuron disease, schizophrenia, depression, and autism spectrum disorders. Utilizing human brain samples, animal models, cellular systems, and patient-derived stem cells, we pinpoint genes, proteins, and biological pathways involved in motor neuron disease, Alzheimer's, and related dementias, ultimately working toward creating groundbreaking therapies that can alter disease progression.
