Céline Galvagnion and her partners received a 1.749.377 € collaborative grant from EraPermed for the project “DEEPEN-iRBD Prodromal DEtErminants for PhENoconversion of idiopathic RBD to alpha-synucleinopathies (PD, DLB and MSA)”. The DEEPEN-iRBD study aims to model the progression of REM sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) towards Parkinson’s disease (PD), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and dementia with […]

We are thrilled to announce that Céline will be joining the FEBS Special Meeting on Sphingolipid Biology as a speaker. The Meeting, scheduled to take place from the 8th until the 13th of October 2023 in Madeira, proposes to summon the sphingolipid community to discuss about the basic principles of sphingolipid biology and about how […]

Using a combination of Small Angle X-ray and Neutron Scattering (SAXS/SANS) measurements, we show that the binding of α-synuclein, the protein involved in Parkinson’s Disease, to negatively charged membranes leads to the fast (<ms) and reversible breakage of vesicles into small, cylindrical and disc-like lipid-protein particles that is followed by a slower (days) and irreversible aggregation […]

The DEEPEN-iRBD project, funded by @ERANET_PerMed, aims at defining a model for early risk stratification, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of patients with iRBD. We are a multidisciplinary consortium of researchers from Luxembourg, Italy, France, Denmark, Sweden and Croatia. The project kick-off meeting took place in Milan on the 27th of February, 2023, where we had […]

We are thrilled to announce that our publication on “Sphingolipid changes in Parkinson L444P GBA mutation fibroblasts promote α-synuclein aggregation” was selected for an article feature at the KU website. We are happy to see our work receiving recognition and being shared with a wider audience. Read the article here →
