Research Topics

  • My research focuses on the mechanisms by which inflammation is modulated, its effects on neuroglia and the manner in which this impacts on neurodegenerative diseases. The research is unique in showing that neuropeptides, powerful regulators of peripheral inflammation, also exert important effect on inflammation in the brain. This raises the possibility of new therapeutic strategies for treatment of neurodegenerative disease featuring anti-inflammatory neuropeptide receptor agonists or antagonists

Major expertise and techniques in the lab
