Jonas Verhellen, University of Copenhagen, has been awarded a postdoc research grant from the Lundbeck Foundation worth DKK 2.969.912
This project aims to find new treatment options for severe mental disorders, like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, by studying key protein interactions involved in these conditions. Using advanced computer modelling, we’re designing specialised drug molecules that can reach the brain and precisely target these interactions. Our approach could lead to more effective therapies with fewer side effects, offering hope for better outcomes for people affected by these challenging disorders.
