Adelaide research focuses on neuron-glial interplay during neurodevelopment and neurodegenerative disorders. Adelaide explored the impact of neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. jaundice, sepsis) on astrogliosis, neurodegeneration and recently on oligodendrogenesis. Presently, Adelaide addresses the relevance of microglia in degenerative disorders by exploring microRNA-dependent microglia phenotype switch on Alzheimer’s Disease and the role of neuroinflammation and microglia recruitment on demyelination/remyelination during Multiple Sclerosis.
