Накратко на български
Биологичните механизми на невродегенеративните заболявания се изучават чрез анализ на генетични рискове, холестерола и работата на кръвоносните съдове при болест на Алцхаймер. Това помага за по-доброто разбиране на причините за увреждането на мозъка и развитието на по-ефективни методи за диагностика.

Final Activity Report Summary - BIND (Biology of Neurodegenerative Diseases Research)
The aim in the program has been to provide first-class training for our PhD fellows, serve as a source of experts for academic research, clinic, and industry, and emphasise international connections and mobility. Kuopio neuroscience community has established an active research collaboration in the biology of neurodegeneration and training of postdoctoral fellows and PhD-fellows. In this program over 20 senior investigators join their expertise to capitalize the benefits of synergy in methodology, infrastructure, data sharing, and research training. All together nine ESR fellows have taken part into the BiND program, six fellows full 36 months and 3 fellows shorter periods. The research topics of the ESRs were as follows: 1. Alina Solomon, Cholesterol and late-life cognition. An epidemiological and clinical approach. 2. Gabriela Spulber, Different automated methods for analysis of MRI data in brain Imaging in Alzheimer's disease research. 3. Nick Hayward, MRI of cerebrovascular hemodynamics in rodent models of traumatic brain injury, stroke and epileptogenesis. 4. Xavier Ekolle Ndode-Ekane, Angiogenesis in epilepsy. 5. Lakshman Kumar Puli, Role of immunomodulators in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. 6. Jayashree Viswanathan, Genetic and Functional Characterisation of novel risk genes in Alzheimer's disease. 7. Ashish Kumar Shah, Bone marrow derived cells in Alzheimer's disease.

Цел на проекта
The Kuopio University campus in Finland hosts about 20 neuroscience groups and 50 PhD students in 5 graduate schools. The 2 major basic science facilities (A.I. Virtanen Institute for Molecular Sciences and Department of Neuroscience and Neurology) are located near the Department of Neurology in Kuopio University Hospital. Our feature worldwide is a strong continuum between basic and clinical research that takes questions from lab-bench to bedside and back. The major research interests include studies on 3 neuro-degenerative diseases, that is, Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, and stroke. Kuopio neuroscience community has established an active research collaboration in the biology of neuro-degeneration and training of postdoctoral fellows and PhD-students. In t his project, 5 senior investigators join their expertise to facilitate and capitalize the benefits of synergy in methodology, infrastructure, data sharing, and research training.We have 4 major research goals during 2006-2010 in understanding neuro-degenerative diseases:(1) identification of novel molecular pathways mediating neuro-degeneration and repair(2) development of novel in vitro and in vivo models of human neuro-degenerative diseases,(3) identification of surrogate markers that predict the neurode generative process and its outcome, and(4) identification novel gene mutations linked to human neuro-degenerative diseases and their function in the neuro-degenerative process.We have established training program including 2-3 courses, seminar series, summer schools, international conferences annually, as well as weekly laboratory meetings and day-to-day personal supervising. We aim at continuing scientific excellence and providing first-class training for our PhD students and post-docs, serving as a source of experts for academic research, clinic, and industry, and emphasizing international connections and mobility.
