What is happening across WCMM Lund?

Two researchers. One hour of science. 

The WCMM Friday Club is a monthly opportunity to take a closer look at the research happening across our community. Each session features two researchers who share their ongoing work, ideas and discoveries, from early results and new approaches to unexpected findings and challenges along the way.

Join us on the last Friday of every month, 12:00–13:00, for an hour of science, discussion and exchange.

OCTOBER 30

Mirjam Müller, PhD student 

Dementia Multi-Omics and Neuroimaging (DeMON) group (Vogel Lab)

Title: Proteomic analysis of body- and brain-predominant subtypes in Parkinson’s disease

The seminar will discuss body- and brain-predominant subtypes of Parkinson’s disease, identified based on distinct patterns of pathological progression. In this ongoing project, we aim to classify preclinical and Parkinson’s disease participants in the PPMI cohort and investigate proteomic differences between the subtypes in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

Porträtt av en man.

Carlos Noriega Polo, PhD student 

Translational Neurology Group (Paul Visse Lab)

Title: Pericyte-Centered Strategies for Therapeutic Modulation in Ischemic Stroke

The seminar will explore the role of pericytes in ischemic stroke and their potential as therapeutic targets. As key components of the blood–brain barrier and early responders to ischemia, pericytes may offer new opportunities to promote brain repair and recovery after stroke, where effective treatment options remain limited.

Research keywords:ischemic stroke, pericytes, secretome
