Research group leaders A-Ö and research groups at Neuro

Stroke- Acute intervention and secondary prevention

Stemcells and inflammation

The effects of inflammation on neural stem cells

Clinical neurophysiology

Neurophysiological techniques still have an important role in detecting brain dysfunctions. These methods allow for an immediate snapshot of various physiological parameters, be they electrophysiological or hemodynamic.

Augmented Neurosurgery/Augmenterad neurokirurgi

Our research group develops solutions and technologies to increase the precision of surgical procedures to improve surgical outcomes and reduce the frequency of patient injuries, reoperations and length of hospital stay.

The brain’s functional and structural network architecture and its relationship to cognition and CNS disease

Neuroepidemiology with focus on multiple sclerosis

Imaging of Neurodegenerative and Neuroinflammatory disorders

Therapeutic immune design. 
We focus on diagnostics and curative treatments of chronic inflammatory diseases and cancer

Immunotherapy.
We aim to apply novel therapies derived from experimental studies into the human clinical setting.

Neuroradiology.

The Staffan Holmin research group is a part of the Department of Clinical Neuroscience at Karolinska Institutet and the Department of Neuroradiology at Karolinska University Hospital. The group is engaged in clinical and translational research on a wide variety of topics centered around modern neuroimaging, nuclear medicine, and image-guided vascular interventions.

ALS

ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) is a fatal neuromuscular disease that is characterized by a degeneration of upper and lower motorneurons. 

Epigenetic origins and mechanisms in neuroinflammation

What happens in the brain when we feel pain?

Mechanisms of pain and treatment

Our research investigates the interaction of the nervous- and the immune systems with regard to the development of chronic pain.

Cognitive Neuroscience

Inflammation and neurodegeneration in the CNS diseases focusing on multiple sclerosis (MS)

Neuroradiology - MRI physics

The research group consists of MR physicists at Karolinska University Hospital and GE Healthcare, and develops new imaging methods for brain MRI. 

Genetic Epidemiology of Multiple Sclerosis

Our aim is to identify genetic risk factors for multiple sclerosis, study their function and how they together with life-style risk factors for multiple sclerosis interact.

Translational Neuropharmacology

Neurosurgery

Damage repair in CNS using micro-surgery and stem cell technology.
