Charlotte Schubert studied medicine at the Universities of Freiburg im Breisgau, Marseille and Paris. Fascinated by the complexity of neurobiology she carried out her thesis on neuroplasticity through 2-Photon long-term in vivo imaging in a model of epilepsy. In 2017 she started her residency at the Department of Neurology at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) with a wide clinical interest in neuroimmunology, neurodegeneration and epilepsy. In 2018 she became a research fellow at the INIMS and joined the Collaborative Research Center “Adenine Nucleotides in Immunity and Inflammation” (CRC 1328). Her research focuses on pathophysiological mechanisms that drive inflammation-induced neurodegeneration in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and Multiple Sclerosis in particular in the olfactory bulb and investigates possible neuroprotective treatment strategies via purinergic signaling.
