Ageing synapse – The dynamic membrane traffic at the neuronal synapse: Endosomal sub-compartments in health and disease
Referência: HR22-00854

Duração

01/12/2022 - 30/11/2025

Apresentação

Acrónimo: synageing

Objetivo temático: The dynamic membrane traffic at the neuronal synapse:

Endosomal subcompartments in health and disease

Área Científica: Neuroscience

Síntese do Projeto: The project aims to understand the molecular mechanisms of exocytosis and endocytosis at the synapse and the consequences of their dysfunction, such as impaired synaptic physiology and neurodegeneration. The work is planed to be complement by directing future research towards the presynaptic endosomal dynamics and its role in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson's disease.
