PhD – Principal Investigator, Head of Neuroplasticity and Metabolism Research Group from March 2021. His main interest is in brain-driven eating disorders – from neuropsychiatric disorders such as Anorexia nervosa to the pandemic of the modern world – obesity. He studies the precise mechanisms that regulate peripheral metabolism by the brain.
His research focuses on how neurons modify their activity in response to both internal and external signals.
Role in the project: Coordinator of the SAME-NeuroID
PhD – Principal Investigator, Head of Astrocytes Biology Research Group. The main focus is the role of astrocytes in neurophysiology and neuropathology. Combines advanced genetic manipulation of astrocytes with state-of-the-art methods to visualize the effects of interventions on metabolic and synaptic function of astrocytes in vitro and circuit-specific behavioral phenotypes relevant to psychiatric disorders.
Role in the project: Coordinator of Twinning research agenda at Łukasiewicz – PORT
PhD – Director of the Life Science & Biotechnology Center, Head of Genome Dynamics Research Group. He conducts interdisciplinary research in the field of biological sciences, biotechnology and molecular medicine. The main areas of interest are DNA repair mechanisms, mutation fixation processes and evolution of the genome structure.
Role in the project: Leader of interdisciplinary research
PhD – Principal Investigator, Head of Synaptogenesis Lab from February 2020. He is interested in modeling neuropsychiatric disorders in mouse models and in cultured cells. His studies aimed at understanding the mechanisms regulating the formation and organization of synapses in the central and the peripheral nervous systems and their aberrations in disease. His research focuses on the function of the Angiomotin family of proteins in the brain.
Role in the project: Leader of interdisciplinary research
PhD – Principal Investigator, Head of the Laboratory of Mechanisms of Neurodegeneration. She is interested in understanding how aged cells get prompt to neurodegeneration. She investigates the protein quality control pathways in human-relevant in vitro models as well as in vivo for improved translatability of research.
Role in the project: “In vitro” task supervisor
