معرفی
Lydia Sorokin is a Professor at the Institute of Physiological Chemistry and Pathobiochemistry within the University of Münster, Germany. She serves as Spokesperson for the Cells in Motion Interfaculty Centre and actively contributes to the Imaging Network and CiM-IMPRS graduate program.
- Research Focus: Cell-matrix interactions, leukocyte extravasation, blood vessel biology, secondary lymphoid organs, and neuroinflammatory processes.
- Key Contributions: Elucidating laminin functions in vascular integrity, neuroinflammatory disease mechanisms, and extracellular matrix regulation of immune cell migration.
Publication Trends: Recent studies (2022-2024) explore CNS macrophage heterogeneity, endothelial-laminin interactions, and neurovascular unit dysfunction in diseases like multiple sclerosis and cerebral small vessel disease. Earlier work (2012-2020) established roles for laminins and matrix metalloproteinases in blood-brain barrier regulation, immune cell trafficking, and tissue-specific matrix responses.
Collaborations & Networks: Active in Cells in Motion, Imaging Network, and CiM-IMPRS graduate program. Collaborates with institutions across Europe on neurovascular and immunology research.
