New drugs for refractory neurological diseases through translational research
  • Search for biomarkers of the state of refractory neurological diseases and effect of drug treatment
  • Basic research on drug development for refractory neurological diseases
  • Search for new drug targets in refractory neurological diseases

New biomarkers and drug targets

Frustratingly, little is known about the causes of many neurological diseases and little is available in terms of treatment. In this course, we examine the pathology of several neurological diseases, the use of animal models to study the disease, and consider potential drug targets and biomarkers. Studies involve basic and clinical research.
