About the group
The Neuroscience, Inflammatory Disorders & Therapeutics research group, within the Centre for Nutraceuticals, is based in the University of Westminster's School of Life Sciences.
The Neuroscience, Inflammatory Disorders & Therapeutics group aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying neurological and inflammatory diseases and to understand fundamental principles of biological pathways relating to inflammation, with the aim of identifying novel therapeutic agents to delay or halt disease progression or alleviate symptoms.
