Malin ParmarDr. Parmar PhD is Professor of Developmental and Regenerative Neurobiology at Lund University. She is a New York Stem Cell Foundation Robertson Investigator. She was awarded the Bengt Falck Prize in Neuroscience in 2018 for pioneering stem cell reseach that has opened new possibilities for treating patients with neurodegenerative diseases, and also the Eric K. Fernström Prize in 2016 for young, promising, and successful researchers. The focus of her research is to understand cell fate specification in the developing brain and in human neural progenitor cells using cell-based models of neuronal differentiation - with the ultimate aim of developing these cells and technologies for use in brain repair.
