Florence M. Bareyre
Florence Bareyre studied biochemistry at the University of Paris, France, and Neuroscience at the ETH in Zürich, receiving her PhD in 2003. After completing her postdoctoral training at Washington University (St Louis, USA) and Harvard University (Cambridge, USA) from 2004 to 2006, she joined the Institute of Clinical Neuroimmunology at the Clinic of the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich, Germany. There she established her laboratory as a BMBF junior fellow of the German Research Foundation (DFG) in 2008. Since 2012, she is a principial investigator at the Institute of Clinical Neuroimmunology. She received her habililtation in Neuroimmunology in 2014 and her APL professorship in 2024. Her laboratory focuses on brain and spinal cord injuries with the goal to understand how innate plasticity can be harvested to foster functional recovery following injury. Within the FOR 5705 her interest lies in the neuronal control of inflammation following a wide range of traumatic injuries to better understand the molecules at play in order to find new therapeutic targets to promote recovery.
