Saara Tegelberg
Senior Scientist
Research group: Epilepsy Genetics
I study the disease mechanisms of a rare epilepsy syndrome, EPM1, using disease models to uncover how genetic changes lead to cellular and metabolic disturbances in the brain. With a background in genetics and neurobiology, and passion for histology and microscopy, my aim is to improve the diagnostics and therapies for our patients.
