During this time, he has developed a strong interest in the genetic causes of epilepsies and neurological disorders. He has helped describe various neurological genetic diseases and identified new genetic causes. Currently, one focus of his scientific work is the translation of basic research into new therapies.

A better understanding of hereditary developmental disorders - what can be learned from the natural course of the disease, using the example of BPAN

In order to be able to develop new therapies from the findings of basic research, it is important to understand the natural course of developmental disorders. Only if we know the natural course of the disease can we assess whether interventions are effective.
