The research focus of the Berg lab has been to combine quantitative approaches of mathematics and physics with experiments using electrophysiology, genetics, tissue clearing and other biological tools to better…

The overall purpose of the lab is to understand sensorimotor interactions in the central nervous system of humans, and how sensorimotor interactions serves as the foundations for cognitive functions. We study basic…

Ulrik Gether’s lab has long-standing expertise in studying the molecular, cellular and physiological function of monoamine receptors and transporters.

The group’s research focuses on the relations between neuroplasticity and neurotransmission, as revealed by mapping radioligand binding and the neuroplastic changes of brain functions.

Our goal is to elucidate molecular mechanisms that determine the functional heterogeneity of different neurosecretory systems with a particular focus on synapse-like signalling mechanisms along the gut-brain-axis.

We study the molecular, cellular, and network diversification of locomotor circuitries in mammals with the goal of providing a unified understanding of the functional organization of neuronal circuits that execute…

The Kirkeby group studies the factors involved in human neural subtype specification in order to enable production of specific neurons for understanding and treating neurological diseases.

Our research efforts revolves around Drosophila (the fruit fly), a powerful genetic model system. The focus is basic cell biology, but with a keen view on medical relevance.

Our lab explores sleep biology in health and disease. Our focus is to understand sleep-wake neurophysiology and how the immune system affects the sleep regulating networks of the brain. We are particularly interested i…

Our group has a long-standing interest in improving the outcome of peripheral nerve regeneration.

Research in this laboratory concentrates on the neural and astrocytic mechanisms of local vascular regulation. Our basic research circles around blood flow control and blood-brain barrier properties under normal…

The focus of this lab is the implications of astrocytes in ensuring a healthy brain and adequate blood flow.

The overall aims of our research is to transfer knowledge from basic neuro science into clinical neurorehabilitation practice with special attention to spastic movement disorder and Cerebral Palsy. I will use my positio…

The Løland lab focuses on structure-function relationships in membrane transporters with focus on the Neurotransmitter:Sodium Symporter (NSS) class of proteins.

The research group focuses on elucidation of the molecular mechanisms underlying water and ion homeostasis in the mammalian brain under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions.

My research addresses fundamental aspects of basic pharmacology, molecular pharmacology and neuropharmacology, with certain potential translational parts.

The main experimental approach of the laboratory has been the use and development of electrophysiological techniques in which the excitability and connectivity of spinal neurones can be investigated in transgenic roden…

The Nielsen lab aims to gain insight in basic principles and mechanisms of motor learning, the neuroplastic changes in the central nervous system (CNS) underlying motor learning and the relationship between…

Our lab has a developed a strong expertise in the study of intrinsic properties of individual neurons.

The purpose of the research in my lab is to understand how G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and neurotransmitter transporters function at the molecular level.

In a combined effort involving neuroanatomical and molecular biological techniques, we are studying development and function of the circadian system of the mammalian brain.

The aim of the research is to understand how neurons in small assemblies interact to produce sensory and motor functions in the brain.

Our group examines the space-time dynamics in the cerebral cortex, i.e. the progression of membrane current changes, local field potential changes and spiking in the space made up of the cortical network of neurons, or…

My group has expertise in studying the molecular and cellular mechanisms of neurotransmitter release in chemical synapses and in neuroendocrine cells.

The Woldbye lab has been studying the role of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and other neuropeptides in rodent behavioural and CNS disease models over the past 20 years.
