His thesis is entitled "Developing a Porcine Model to Study the Glymphatic System" and opponent during the dissertation was professor Per Kristian Eide from Oslo.
The glymphatic system is a brain wide waste clearance system that has been implicated in the clearance of amyloid-beta and tau from the brain, however, much of our knowledge on this system stems exclusively from rodent models. In order to better understand the system in the brain of a large mammal, and make inferences on the likely architecture of human glymphatics, this work set out to develop a porcine glymphatic model.
