Program Overview

The Neurobiology & Neurodegeneration program at the University of Liverpool delves into the mechanisms underlying neuronal development, aging, and neurodegeneration through interdisciplinary research, integrating expertise in cell biology, structural biology, and model organisms. Students explore the structural basis of calcium sensor recognition, the role of neuronal chaperone proteins in neuroprotection, and the development of model systems for drug discovery in neuronal disorders. The program's strong research infrastructure provides access to advanced facilities and world-renowned research groups.
