About DANDRITE

The Danish Research Institute of Translational Neuroscience (DANDRITE) was established by Lundbeckfonden and Aarhus University in 2013 and performs basic and translational research in brain and the nervous system.

Research at DANDRITE

Research at DANDRITE aims at unravelling the molecular mechanisms that explain physiological manifestations of cellular communication networks in brain circuits and nervous system, and how these are affected in neurological and psychiatric disorders.

DANDRITE is part of the Nordic EMBL Partnership

DANDRITE is the Danish node of the Nordic EMBL Partnership for Molecular Medicine, which facilitates collaborative research, access to infrastructure, and fosters outstanding international research talent.
