Céline Galvagnion received a DKK 9,978,812 Hallas-Møller Emerging Investigator grant from the Novo-Nordisk Foundation for the project “Brain lipid ageing and selective neuronal vulnerability in the context of Parkinson’s Disease”. This project aims at identifying disruptions in lipid metabolism associated with ageing and Parkinson’s Disease in neuronal cell models and post-mortem brain samples.

Céline Galvagnion received a DKK 4,499,587 Young Researcher Fellowship from the Carlsberg Foundation for the project “Establishing the role of Glucocerebrosidase mutations and associated changes in lipid metabolism in the emergence of alpha-synuclein and Parkinson Disease pathology”. This project aims at identifying disruptions in lipid metabolism associated with GBA mutations in neuronal cells and post-mortem brain samples. More information can be found here.

Céline Galvagnion received a DKK 100,000 grant from the Danish Parkinson’s disease foundation (Parkinsonforeningen) to start the work on investigating the interplay between lipid changes and protein aggregation associated with decreases in glucocerebrosidase protein and activity levels in differentiated SH-SY5Y cells.
