Shohreh Issazadeh-Navikas

Shohreh Issazadeh-Navikas is a Professor at the Biotech Research & Innovation Centre (BRIC) within the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. Her research focuses on the intersection of neuroscience and immunology, particularly in neuroinflammatory conditions.

Her primary research areas include:

• Neuroimmunology
• Neuroinflammation
• Neurodegeneration
• CNS cancer

Professor Issazadeh-Navikas's work bridges Neuroscience, Immunology, and Tumor Immunology, with significant implications for conditions like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and other neurodegenerative disorders. Her research examines the complex relationships between immune responses and neural degeneration, with particular attention to mitochondrial function, T cell regulation, and inflammatory pathways in the central nervous system.

Her publications have received extensive attention, being featured in high-impact journals and widely shared across news outlets, social media platforms, and referenced in patents, demonstrating both scientific impact and potential translational applications.

She leads the active Issazadeh-Navikas Group at BRIC, which investigates mechanisms underlying neuroinflammatory diseases and explores potential therapeutic approaches for neurological disorders.
