Research at Salman Lab
At Salman Lab, we are dedicated to unraveling the complexities of neurodegenerative diseases through innovative research.
Dynamic 3D BBB Models
We developed dynamic 3D models to simulate blood-brain barrier function under neurodegenerative conditions.
Mechanobiological Effects on Brain Health
We explored how biophysical factors like blood flow and pressure influence brain waste processes.
Development of BBB-on-a-chip
We developed microfluidic BBB-on-a-chip models to observe blood-brain barrier functions in real-time.
Therapeutic Targets for Dementia Prevention
We aimed to define and validate therapeutic targets that can effectively prevent dementia onset.
Advanced BBB Modeling Techniques
We explore advanced techniques to better understand the blood-brain barrier and brain function in neurodegenerative conditions.
- Utilizes patient-derived iPSCs.
- Incorporates real-time data analysis.
- Mimics neurodegenerative disease environments.
Strategies for Neurodegeneration
We are developing new therapeutic strategies focused on preventing the onset of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Targets early BBB dysfunction.
- Employs gene editing tools.
- Tests compounds in 3D brain models.
