Personal statement

We have made important contributions to the field of neuronal genetics, particularly in the elucidation of the cell molecular mechanisms underlying the development of brain malformations. Our research currently includes human brain organoid models and the development of an on-chip device enabling long-term live imaging at a sub-cellular resolution to study early human brain development.
