Funktionell farmakologi och neurovetenskap

Foto: Mikael Wallerstedt
Forskarlaget vid enheten för funktionell farmakologi och neurovetenskap genomför farmakologiska, toxikologiska, genetiska och beteende studier med koppling till läkemedel, miljögifter, sjukdomar, beteenden och miljöförändringar.
Forskargruppen för funktionell farmakologi och neurovetenskap använder olika experimentella modeller, inklusive människor och djur såsom flugor och möss. De undersöker biverkningar av läkemedel för att förstå de molekylära, cellulära och genetiska orsakerna bakom deras toxiska effekter. De undersöker mekanismerna för miljögifters påverkan i samband med flera olika sjukdomar och identifierar biomarkör i blod för att diagnostisera olika åkommor. De studerar flera olika typer av beteenden, som födointag och beroende och försöker att utröna de molekylära mekanismerna. De kartlägger även stora gen- och proteinfamiljer samt molekylära signalvägar.
Gruppen arbetar i en tvärvetenskaplig miljö som främjar karriärmöjligheter för doktorander och postdoktorer. De är en högproduktiv enhet med flera publikationer av hög kvalitet och betydande citeringar och forskargruppsledaren är en av världens mest citerade forskarna. Lärarna i forskargruppen undervisar vid läkarutbildningen, biomedicinprogrammet, masterprogrammet i biomedicin och andra relevanta kurser.
