It is so frustrating to wait so long for getting our facility up and running. But at the end, we are very lucky and most importantly excited!!!!
We have to face important delays, but it will be an amazing place to work.

Unveiling the normal and pathogenic role of neurexins in the developing brain – Whilst many current drugs are derived from nature, many more bioactive molecules have still to be discovered. To help speed up discovery, we will develop i) a unique multipurpose zebrafish model combining different transgenic fluorescent markers/sensors and ii) automated assays to screen existing diverse chemical libraries for bioactive molecules. Validated assays will then be used to screen natural product libraries.
