Research in the Department of Neuropathology
The knowledge on pathological processes in the central nervous system is fundamental for the development of effective therapeutic strategies. Therefore, research is an essential part of the activities within the Dept. Neuropathology.
Main foci of our research is the immune system of the brain. Several goups investigate the molecular basis with different approaches.
The groups
The AG Innate Immunity (Head: Prof. Dr. M. Prinz) focuses on the role of the brain specific innate immune system by using mouse models of multiple sclerosis (EAE model), toxic de- and remyelination and neurodegenation, e.g. Alzheimers disease.
The AG Molecular Genetics (Head: Dr. K.P.Knobeloch) aims to understand the molecular and biological function of distinct components of the Ubiquitin- and Ubiquitin like systems within the context of the whole organism.
