Moritz Brosch

Moritz Brosch serves as a Research associate at the Institute of Experimental Neuroregeneration, Paracelsus Medical University (PMU), actively engaged in neuroscience research and teaching activities. His institutional affiliation spans the Austrian Cluster for Tissue Regeneration, where he participates as a collaborator in cutting-edge regenerative medicine initiatives.

Education:

• Bachelor of Science (BSc)
• Master of Science (MSc)

His research centers on neuroimmunology and neuroregeneration, specifically investigating how monoamines (e.g., noradrenalin, serotonin) physiologically modulate microglial activity in the central nervous system. This work explores critical intersections between immunomodulation, phagocytosis, and protein kinase C signaling pathways, with direct implications for spinal cord injury therapies and neuroinflammatory disorders. His fingerprint analysis confirms dominant expertise in microglia biology (100%), monoamine systems (50%), and immunomodulation (50%).

Recent publications (2023-2024) reveal a concentrated research trajectory focused on monoamine-microglia interactions, emphasizing physiological modulation mechanisms rather than pathological states. These studies consistently bridge basic neuroscience with translational regenerative applications, particularly in stem cell therapy contexts for central nervous system repair.

• No awards documented

Brosch contributes to academic training as an instructor for pharmacology exercises (Übung Allgemeine Pharmakologie) and laboratory courses (Basic Lab), mentoring students in neuropharmacology techniques. His research is sustained through active participation in two major grants: Exploiting monoamines to improve stem cell therapy in SCI (2024-present) as Sub-investigator, and A combinatorial approach for improved neuroprotection and regeneration in vitro (2024-2025) as Site-Investigator, focusing on neuroprotection, neuroinflammation, and cellular maturation models.

He operates within Couillard-Després' research ecosystem at PMU's Institute of Experimental Neuroregeneration, collaborating closely with Benedetti, Bieler, and Lepperdinger on tissue regeneration projects. His work integrates with the Austrian Cluster for Tissue Regeneration network, leveraging interdisciplinary approaches to advance neural repair strategies.
