Researchers: Prof Seong-Seng Tan (Principal investigator)

Brief description We have discovered a new protein (Ndfip1) that protects brain cells from death after brain injury from trauma and stroke. We will investigate why this protein is activated only in some, but not in other, brain cells after injury. In this application, we will study the mechanisms behind neuron protection, and use this information to explore how to increase the number of brain cells activating Ndfip1.
