معرفی
Michael Winder is a Professor in Pharmacology at the Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology, University of Gothenburg. His research focuses on autonomic neuroscience, particularly the role of nitric oxide signaling, neurotransmitter interactions, and smooth muscle physiology in pathological conditions such as chronic pelvic pain syndrome, cystitis, and Parkinson's disease-related bladder dysfunction.
- Affiliation: Department of Pharmacology, Institute of Neuroscience and Physiology, University of Gothenburg
- Research Group: Autonomic Neuroscience Unit
His research explores mechanisms of bladder overactivity, cross-organ sensitization between the prostate and bladder, and the therapeutic potential of soluble guanylate cyclase activators like BAY 60-2770. He investigates how inflammation, neurodegeneration, and pharmacological interventions affect smooth muscle contractility and neurotransmission in urological and gastrointestinal systems.
Publications highlight trends in nitric oxide dependency, purinergic/cholinergic interactions, and drug combination therapies for bladder disorders. His work spans preclinical models, receptor signaling, and translational pharmacology.

Winder collaborates extensively within the Autonomic Neuroscience Unit and with researchers in urology, neuroscience, and pharmacology. He has contributed to conferences like the International Continence Society meetings and journals such as Neurourology and Urodynamics and European Journal of Pharmacology.
