Paul M. Ganz (Scientist)

Paul M. Ganz is a renowned scientist known for his work in neuroscience, particularly in understanding how the brain's immune cells, called microglia, influence brain development, function, and disease. His research explores how microglia interact with neurons, affecting processes such as synaptic pruning and neuroinflammation, which are crucial in conditions like autism, schizophrenia, and neurodegenerative diseases. By studying these mechanisms, Ganz aims to uncover potential targets for new treatments to improve brain health and combat neurological disorders.
