The Department of Neuroscience offers an international environment that brings together faculty with different expertise to study the development and function of the nervous system in health and disease.
Why do we get headaches?
Many of us get headaches from time to time, without it causing too much trouble. But for those who suffer from migraines, or worse, from cluster headaches, it may imply severe disability. Andrea Carmine Belin's research focuses on the genetics behind cluster headaches, a condition sometimes referred to as "suicide headache".
What can we learn from the Neanderthals?
Hugo Zeberg's research focuses on different gene variants, inherited from the Neanderthal, and how they affect fertility and the risk of being infected by various diseases. Listen to episode #67 of Medicinvetarna to find out more (in Swedish).
He also answers the question whether humans have developed genetically at all since the Stone Age, in episode #76.
