Brain plasticity research with a metabolic twist. Our lab is based in Cologne, Germany (@CECAD_).

📢 Our latest preprint on the role of mitochondria on neuronal function is out! We generated much needed new mouse models to manipulate transport in vivo, identifying GABAergic synapses for being particularly vulnerable to mitochondrial turnover rates. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Mitochondrial turnover at central GABAergic synapses governs vulnerability to epileptic seizures

Mitochondrial dysfunction has long been known to underlie neurodegeneration, yet the contribution of mitochondrial turnover dynamics to functional aspects of defined synaptic circuits remains poorly u...
