Immune component of Parkinson's disease: vagus nerve immunomodulation

Associate Professor

Aarhus University

Associate professor Marina Romero-Ramos aims with her project to identify critical immune components relevant to subtypes of Parkinson’s Disease and determine proteins by which both blood and brain immune responses affect neuronal health at different disease stages, seeking to describe immune biomarkers for the distinction of these subtypes.

Ultimately, she is hoping to find novel targets for the preclinical development of therapies. She received a Lundbeck Foundation Ascending Investigator research grant of DKK 5,000,000.
