Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Dorien A Maas"
- Dorien A Maas's research primarily focuses on oligodendroglial calcium signals and their significance in myelination processes, with innovative methodologies provided for analyzing these complex calcium dynamics at both population and single-cell levels.
- A significant aspect of Maas's work encompasses investigations into the neurobiological foundations of schizophrenia, particularly exploring cognitive and social-cognitive impairments and their neurobiological underpinnings, which hold promise for novel treatment development.
- Additionally, Maas examines the role of neuronal activity in myelin repair for multiple sclerosis and the lipid metabolism pathways associated with cognitive symptoms in schizophrenia, contributing to a deeper understanding of molecular mechanisms involved in these disorders.
