Interested in the heterogeneity of blood vessels in the CNS? Here we review the unique features of the spinal cord vasculature, its barrier properties and neurovascular interactions, highlighting unknown aspects and future research directions.

Super excited that our group will be supported by an ERC Starting Grant!

In project "InfoFate" we will study how cells use information in dynamical, neighborhood & mechanical signals to make decisions.

We'll have PhD and Postdoc positions available, please get in touch if interested!

Choroid plexus sex differences in secretory signalling and immune compartments
The choroid plexus (ChP)- cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) axis is emerging as a key regulator of the brain environment. The ChP is a multi-functional structure, which forms the blood-CSF barrier, and acts a...
