Oxford Epilepsy Research Group
DCN
We are a forward-looking dynamic group interested in all aspects of clinical and experimental epileptology with an emphasis on clinically relevant research. The Group draws together all relevant disciplines across Oxford University Hospitals and the University of Oxford.
Molecular Neurodegeneration Research Group
DCN
Our aim is to understand fundamental biological processes that could inform the development of targeted therapies and innovative biomarkers in neurodegenerative and neurogenetic disorders.
Cognitive Neurology Research Group
DCN
We want to understand how - and why - brain function can be disturbed to lead to poor memory and loss of motivation (apathy). Our aim is to develop new treatments for these conditions across a range of neurological disorders.
Neural Injury Group
DCN
Our aim is to gain a better understanding of the response of the peripheral nervous system to injury in order to develop strategies to promote peripheral nerve repair and to prevent the development of neuropathic pain. To do this we employ a variety of multi-disciplinary techniques ranging from transgenic models to human psychophysical studies and genetics.
Oxford Motor Neuron Disease Centre
DCN FMRIB NDCN
Diagnostic and Advisory Service for Neuromyelitis Optica
DCN
Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is a rare disease causing inflammation in the spinal cord and optic nerves. The NMO service brings together expertise in diagnostics and clinical management to improve outcomes for this often isolated group of patients.
FMRIB Neurodegeneration Group
DCN FMRIB
FMRIB’s Neurodegeneration group comprises clinical and basic neuroscientists across a range of departments and disciplines with a common interest in using neuroimaging to understand normal ageing and disease processes.
Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trials Unit
DCN NDCN
Our group aims to deliver the highest quality translational and clinical research within both investigator- and commercial-led clinical trials with a focus on relieving the disease burden of MS to patients and their carers.
Neurodegeneration and Inflammation Research Group
DCN
We explore the neuropathology of multiple sclerosis and other inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases using a multidisciplinary team approach to post-mortem brain and spinal cord tissue. The aim is that the understanding derived from these studies will translate into ideas for improved treatments for living patients.
Neuromuscular Disorders
DCN
We work to translate an understanding of the molecular mechanisms of disease at the neuromuscular synapse into treatments. Our work led us to be commissioned to provide a National Advisory and Diagnostic Service for congenital myasthenic syndromes.
Congenital Myasthenia Service
DCN
We provide a nationally commissioned specialised service for the diagnosis and management of children and adults in whom a congenital myasthenic syndrome is suspected.
