- [Research](https://deinhardtlab.net/research/): The interest of our laboratory concerns the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie neuronal maintenance and plasticity throughout life. Complex intracellular logistics are required to form and maintain neurons. Their processes are elaborate structures that cover vast territories, allowing neurons to create thousands of connections in a highly ordered manner, key to brain function. We aim to understand how neurons integrate the different extracellular cues that they receive at distinct parts of the cell in time and space to maintain and adapt their structure and connectivity in a tightly regulated manner. To this end, we study the relationship of short- […]
- [Team](https://deinhardtlab.net/team/): Regina Nahrstedt (research technician). Celina Schreiber (research technician). As a technical employee in cell biology, I am particularly fascinated by neuronal cells. Understanding their functions and interactions is important for developing new approaches for the long-term treatment of neurological diseases. Nelson David Villalba Moreno (Postdoctoral researcher). I am a physician and Postdoctoral researcher working at the intersection of medicine and molecular neuroscience. My goal is to better understand the mechanisms governing neurodegeneration and brain structure. Sophie Kothe (PhD student). I did my Master in the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology program of the University of Bremen and am now excited to […]
- [Alumni](https://deinhardtlab.net/alumni/): Researchers Lucy Scullard. Beyond the Synapse: Exploring CSPalpha’s Role in Proteostasis, SNAP-25 Stability and Cellular Differentiation in PC12 cells (PhD student 2020-2025). In an unrelated project, Lucy worked with the with the public policy institute Centre for the South on the project “Mapping Southampton’s food system: Towards a healthier and more sustainable future“. Mercedes Beyna. A platform to investigate the neuronal determinants of APOE genotype on neuron function (part-time PhD 2017-2023). Mercedes was a full-time employee at Biogen while completing her PhD. She led the several widening participation and DEI initiatives and contributed to the National Diversity in Stem conference […]

- [Home](https://deinhardtlab.net/): Our research is focused on cellular and molecular neurobiology. Our main aim is to understand how neurons maintain themselves throughout our lifetime, as well as the cellular changes that occur in neurological conditions. To this end we investigate the cellular and molecular changes underlying plasticity in health and neurodegeneration.
