We are pleased to welcome Dr Majid Memarian Sorkhabi as a Postdoctoral Scientist in Tim Denison’s Group.

Majid completed his Ph.D. in Electronics Engineering at the University of Tabriz, Iran, where his doctoral research was focused on transcranial magnetic stimulation for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. For this purpose, Majid designed and built a prototype specifically designed to concentrate magnetic flux in the desired area of the brain, as validated in rodent models of Parkinsonism.

Here in the Unit, Majid's research will focus on developing non-invasive and minimally invasive therapies for neurodegenerative diseases.
