100% of individuals harbouring the granulin (GRN) mutation will develop Frontotemporal Dementia. With this first clinical trial, we are one step closer to changing that trajectory thanks to research led by Professor Anders Nykjær👏

💥DANDRITE GL's Fiona Müllner and Chao Sun receive an ERC Starting Grant 2025💥 With the grant, Fiona will explore how the thalamus shapes and modulates visual signals. Chao aims to uncover how the brain’s cleaning system works, especially during sleep. Huge congratulations👏 @erc.europa.eu

Our Group Leader @chao-sun.bsky.social is among the 36 recipients of the Sapere Aude Starting Grant from the Independent Research Fund Denmark to uncover whether synapses can fine-tune their energy regulation machinery—and whether this ability deteriorates with age. dandrite.au.dk/display/arti...
