About

Professor Majid Hafezparast is a faculty member at the University of Sussex, specializing in Molecular Neuroscience. His recent research focuses on the role of microglia and non-coding RNAs in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Key contributions include investigating ALS-associated mutations and profiling RNA expression in cerebrospinal fluid of ALS patients. His work aims to advance understanding of neurodegeneration mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
