Ting Du

Ting Du is a Guest researcher at the Center for Translational Neuromedicine within the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. Her work focuses on cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, glymphatic system function, and their implications for neurological disorders and aging.

Her research spans Neuroscience, Neurology, and Ophthalmology with concentrated expertise in brain waste clearance mechanisms, aquaporin-4 channel functionality, and lymphatic vessel roles in fluid drainage. She investigates age-related decline in glymphatic efficiency and its connection to neurodegenerative conditions, utilizing advanced imaging techniques to analyze fluid dynamics in both brain and ocular systems.

Recent publications demonstrate consistent innovation in measurement methodologies and pathological modeling, particularly regarding cerebrospinal fluid drainage restoration in aging and glaucoma-related ocular changes. Her collaborative work frequently appears in high-impact journals like Nature Aging and eLife, reflecting significant contributions to understanding fluid dynamics in neurological health.

As part of the Center for Translational Neuromedicine, Dr. Du participates in interdisciplinary research bridging fundamental neuroscience discoveries with potential clinical applications for age-related neurological disorders and vision diseases.
