The Laboratory of Neuronal Differentiation conducts research into four research lines:

• On the establishment of neuronal polarity.
• On the maintenance of neuronal polarity.
• On the role of membrane lipids in late life defects: involvement in death/survival signaling during neuronal ageing.
• On the search for g-Secretase Activity modulators: the usefulness of Drosophila melanogaster genetics.

The Non-Communicable Diseases Group was created in late 2018 following a long-recognised need to strengthen ITM’s expertise in understanding and addressing the spreading NCD (such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancers) epidemics in low-resource settings, areas traditionally burdened with infectious diseases. The overall motivation of the group is to understand the socioeconomical, behavioral and metabolic risks driving ...

The Physical Activity, Sports & Health research group conducts research with societal impact on the health, physical fitness and sports performance of individuals and groups across the lifespan. Two research lines can be identified:

1) Physical Activity for Fitness and Health research line

Research topics within the Physical Activity for Fitness and Health research line are guided by the Behavioural Epidemiology ...

The Research Group Neurophysiology consists of 2 laboratories: the Laboratory for Neuro- and Psychophysiology and the Laboratory of Auditory Neurophysiology.
