Scientific Directions

1. NEURODEGENERATION: ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE

 The aim is to implement the complex study of neuronal damage and their survival pathways in Alzheimer’s disease.

 

Subprojects
  • Combined Usage of Neuroprotective Drugs with Cell Based Therapies in Treating Alzheimer’s Disease
  • Involvement of Bone Marrow Derived Monocytes in Alzheimer-like Neurodegeneration
  • Influence of Adult Neurogenesis on Neuronal Survival in Alzheimer’s Disease

 

2. AUTISM

The aim is to study the pathogenesis of nervous system developmental disorders exemplified on autism and assessment of their animal models.

 

Subprojects
  • Study of Neurogenesis Alterations in Embryonic and Early Postnatal Period on the Model of Autism spectrum Disorders Induced by Valproic Acid
  • Role of Immune Response in the Model of Propionic Acid Induced Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • Metabolism Disorder and Role of Immune Response in Children with Autism
  • Mapping of Children with Autism in Armenia
  • The direction of changes in neuroglial relationships during the process of synaptic network formation in a valproic acid-induced cell model
