Daniel Martins-de-Souza

About

Daniel´s main expertise is in mass spectrometry-based proteomics and metabolomics and systems biology in silico, employed in clinical and pre-clinical models for psychiatric disorders. His lab also focuses on understanding the involvement of glial cells in the development of diseases such as schizophrenia and depression and their treatment including traditional antipsychotics and cannabinoids. Searching for protein and metabolite biomarkers associated with these disorders in human fluids is also one of the focuses of his group. More recently,Daniel´s group has been investigating how does COVID-19 affects the human brain.
