The research programme consists of coherently linked projects in the fields of development, degeneration and regeneration. It ranges from fundamental studies to the development of strategies for neuroprotection, neuroregeneration and restoration of function of damaged tissue in neuroinflammatory disorders.

Most of the experimental programme is multidisciplinary, within and outside the group. The experimental programme encompasses genetic, molecular, cellular, tissue, system and behavioural levels. The range of techniques and expertise available is broad and is particularly strong in relation to post-genomic and cellular studies, whereby molecular events are analysed and are located with high precision in cells and tissues, in order to understand the complex interplay of events.

The department of Anatomy offers the following  postgraduate research degrees:

• MSc Anatomy (Neuroscience) 
• MD/DMed
• PhD Anatomy (Neuroscience)
