Trine Lisberg Toft is an Associate Professor at the University of Copenhagen specializing in Molecular Neuroscience. Her research focuses on the molecular mechanisms governing cerebral water homeostasis and the physiological and pathophysiological conditions that lead to disorders like hydrocephalus and brain edema. She aims to uncover the roles of specific ion channels and co-transporters in maintaining water and ion balance in the mammalian brain, addressing critical issues related to increased intracranial pressure and its impact on vision. Trine has an extensive academic background, including a Ph.D. in Neuroscience from the University of Copenhagen (UCPH) and multiple positions in neuroscience and biomedical sciences departments. She has received numerous prestigious awards, including the Lundbeck Postdoctoral Fellowship and various grants from the Lundbeck Foundation and other institutions. Additionally, Trine is an active member of the Lundbeck Foundation Investigator Network and has organized seminars to support young neuroscientists. With a solid foundation in research and collaboration, she seeks to identify pharmacological targets to mitigate risks associated with cerebral water dysregulation.
