News

We explore how the brain develops, ages and functions

We study its remarkable resilience but also how it falls to dementia, psychiatric disability and movement disorders. Our different research groups are bridging disciplines, from artificial intelligence, microelectronics and nanoscience, to microfluidics, single cell analysis and chimeric animal models.
