Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Rouven Schulz"
- Rouven Schulz's research primarily focuses on the functional role and morphological characteristics of microglia in the brain, exploring their responses to environmental influences and their implications in neurodegenerative diseases.
- His work includes the development of innovative tools like MorphOMICs for semiautomatic mapping of microglial morphology, as well as investigating the signaling mechanisms of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and the effects of anesthetics on microglial activity.
- Schulz also addresses autoimmunity in central nervous system disorders by studying aquaporin 4-reactive antibodies, and examines the potential of gene therapy techniques to manipulate microglial function for therapeutic purposes.
