Michaela Tanja Haindl Department of general neurology University Clinic for Neurology Biography Publications Institution JoVE Articles Michaela Tanja Haindl Michaela Tanja Haindl is a Biochemist working at the Department for general neurology at Medical University of Graz since 2012. She completed her bachelors and masters degree at the Technical University of Graz and obtained her PhD at the Medical University of Graz.Her research interests are pathophysiological mechanisms of neurological diseases, mainly of Multiple Sclerosis. A special interest are astrocytes and their multifunctional role in health and disease. Her specialty is Neuroimmunology and refinement of histological techniques. She likes substantial, critical research questions and for one of those works she received a young researcher award (INGEST award for the work “The formation of a glial scar does not prohibit remyelination in an animal model of multiple sclerosis”).She is part of the team in Graz, that developed a new animal model for research of pathophysiological mechanisms of the progressive state of Multiple Sclerosis. This model was award winning in 2019 (“Förderungspreis des Landes Steiermark”). Her future vision is, to establish proteomic and genomic techniques in the neuroimmunology lab to learn more about the mechanistic behind this and other models and diseases.
