A variety of funding and study opportunities have been made available in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. We encourage researchers displaced from Ukraine to look into these opportunities. The list will be updated as new information is available. Find the list here.

Mariam will start as a research assistant in Poul Nissen’s group, where she will be focusing on the characterization of the structural and functional properties of Sortilin interactions with different ApoE isomers in the context of Alzheimer associated Amyloid β clearance. She will be working on the project together with Charlott Stock and with the group of Thomas Willnow.

Klaudia begins in the Kvitsiani group per 28. March 2022. About herself, Klaudia says:

"Hi, my name is Klaudia and I am a Master's student studying Neuroscience and Neuroimaging at SDC. I will be joining Duda Kvitsiani's lab as an intern. I will be involved in a project that is focused on studying how mice make decisions in uncertain habitats. The general aim of this research is to build predictive models of foraging behavior to understand the neural and genetic mechanisms that underlie animal decisions. Looking forward to being a part of this exciting project!"

The Jensen Lab recently had their study published in Nature Scientific Reports. The article is titled: "Low dose DMSO treatment induces oligomerization and accelerates aggregation of α‑synuclein."
