1. The Complex Genetics behind Neurodegeneration and Susceptibility to Parkinson’s disease
Abstract : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder and affects over 1% of people above the age of 65. This progressive and debilitating disease is usually thought of as a motor disease, with symptoms such as muscle rigidity, slowness of movement, and tremor at rest. READ MORE

2. Genetic dissection of models for neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration
Abstract : Many central nervous system (CNS) diseases are characterized by inflammation and nerve cell loss, but the exact relationship between these phenomena is not known. The complex etiology of CNS disorders includes a genetic component. READ MORE

3. Genetic regulation of nerve injury-induced neurodegeneration and inflammation
Abstract : Neurodegeneration and inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) are hallmarks of several neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. The susceptibility of an individual to these conditions is complex, i.e. influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. READ MORE

4. Genetics and inflammation in nerve injury-induced neurodegeneration
Abstract : Neurodegeneration and inflammation are characteristic of many diseases of the central nervous system (CNS) and understanding the molecular networks that regulate these processes is of central importance for the development of effective therapies. Although the CNS has traditionally been regarded as an immuno privileged organ, immune reactions, including components of both local innate and systemic immunity, do occur in this tissue. READ MORE
