CENTER FOR<br />

NEURODENERATIVE SCIENCE<br />

Patrik Brundin, M.D., Ph.D.<br />

Director<br />

The Center’s laboratories focus on the development<br />

of novel treatments that slow or stop the progression<br />

of neurodegenerative disease, in particular<br />

Parkinson’s disease. The work revolves around<br />

three main goals: disease modification, biomarker<br />

discovery, and brain repair.<br />
