In addition, we develop machine learning tools to improve personalized pharmacological therapy and establish novel methods for the prediction of drug toxicity.

The Sellgren lab focus on developing induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cellular 3D-models to study the interplay between glia and neurons in the human brain. We are interested in these mechanisms in the context of psychiatric disorders and therefore use patient-derived cells that are collected at collaborating clinics at Karolinska Sjukhuset and Massachusetts General Hospital.
