Medical doctor and researcher specializing in copper metabolism with a focus on Wilson's disease - a rare genetic disorder affecting the liver and the brain. My research explores the pharmacokinetics of copper binding compounds, particularly their effects on brain copper accumulation in the neurological form of Wilson's disease. Using Pet imaging, investigate cerebral and hepatic copper dynamics and evaluate therapeutic potential of novel compounds in animal models.
