It is a pleasure to be involved in the study led by Prof. Dr. Emre Yaksi at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Norway. The study was published in Nature Communications and discovered that failure of glial cells in the brain triggers the epileptic seizures.
DZNE Open Day was a big success!

We determined the response of all brain cells to Alzheimer’s in single cell resolution
How fish brain cells react to Alzheimer’s disease Zebrafish, in contrast to humans, have outstanding regenerative capacities: If brain cells are lost due to illness or injury, they will easily regrow from so-called progenitor cells. With sophisticated methods, in the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) and the Technische Universität Dresden (TUD), we now characterized …
