Elucidating the role of Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) in neurodegeneration


Using cell and mice models, we elucidate a new role of APP in sensing damaged DNA from the nucleus, binding and exporting them into the extracellular space upon DNA damage.


Sedative, anxiolytic and antidepressant effects of essential oils from the leaves of natural plants


During my PhD, I investigate 3 plants species for their sedative, anxiolytic and antidepressant activities in mice. These can be used to further investigate brain-related disorderss like ADHD, autism, PTSD.
