Professor Anne M. Landau
Anne M. Landau is an Associate Professor at Aarhus University in Aarhus, Denmark at the Department of Nuclear Medicine and PET Center and the Translational Neuropsychiatry Unit.
Prof. Landau obtained her PhD from the Department of Physiology at McGill University in 2007 in neuroprotective strategies in a rodent model of Parkinson’s disease. She then completed postdoctoral fellowships in Vancouver, Canada and Aarhus, Denmark in which she used longitudinal positron emission tomography (PET) to assess monoaminergic neurotransmission in large animal models of Parkinson’s disease and brain stimulation therapies, funded by the Parkinson Society Canada and Danish Medical Research Council. Currently, through funding from the Lundbeck Foundation, the Danish Parkinson’s Society and an EU-FP7 grant (Multisyn), her team’s main goal is to develop and validate novel PET tracers towards elucidating disease progression and evaluating the efficacy of experimental therapeutics in animal models of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders.
