NDAL, being one of the major reference centers in Turkey specialized on neurodegenerative disease biology, builds on its experience in genetics. Molecular analysis in several neurological disorders is performed at NDAL. The very rich repository on patient material offers a huge potential for research. The specimens collected are peripheral blood (PBMCs, plasma, and serum), skin biopsy for cell lines, mouth epithelial cells, and gaita in future. Research/Diagnostic Methods implemented:
DNA/RNA analyses
PCR-based analyses
Protein analyses
PBMCs
Fibroblast culture from skin cells
iPSCs
Modeling disease
NGS-based analyses
