Henrik Ahlenius is a Senior Lecturer and Research Team Manager at Lund University specializing in aging and neurodegenerative diseases. His research focuses on understanding how these conditions affect the brain, neural cells, and neural stem cells. He employs innovative stem cell techniques and genome editing technologies to study the genetic pathways involved in aging and neurodegenerative diseases affecting neural cell formation and function. His primary research goal is to develop cellular models that mimic human neuronal aging and degeneration, investigating the underlying mechanisms responsible for neuron dysfunction and the regulatory processes of normal neurogenesis. Ahlenius is also engaged in projects related to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, emphasizing the relevance of his work in broader societal contexts.
