Prof Veronique Miron’s research focuses on white matter health and pathology, revealing the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which oligodendrocytes become dysfunctional in ageing and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Her work has shown that communication between oligodendrocytes and other glial cells is critical for myelin maintenance and repair.

In addition to research, Prof Miron is an advocate for equality and diversity in STEM, and supporting the ECR community.
