The cerebrovascular research group
Group leader
The Cerebrovascular Research Group has several active research projects, both on primary and secondary prevention as well as pre-hospital and in-hospital treatment of acute stroke. The group has broad interest in atherosclerosis, inflammation and acute stroke, including multi-modal imaging methods (MRI, PET, ultrasound).
The group research aims to reduce incidence of stroke (clarify pathophysiologic processes, identify risk factors and applicable biomarkers), reduce stroke severity (cerebral monitoring and neuroprotection in acute phase) and improve patient outcome. The research includes both clinical and translational studies.
