Dr Gaurav Verma
Researcher
University of Gothenburg (Sweden)
Session: In vitro studies of stem cell activities – Thursday 15 May (10.30am-12pm)
Gaurav Verma is a passionate researcher specialising in mitochondrial biology and bioenergetics, with a focus on mitochondrial function in neurological disorders. Gaurav’s current work explores mitochondrial transplantation in brain injury models, investigating how transplanted mitochondria can restore cellular respiration and support neuronal recovery. By analysing oxygen consumption rates (OCR) in isolated mitochondria using Seahorse Flux Analyser, his aim is to unravel new insights into mitochondrial metabolism and neuroprotection, paving the way for potential therapeutic strategies. Beyond his research, Gaurav has contributed to the scientific community through a recently published book chapter with IntechOpen, titled Fundamentals of Stem Cells and Application in Complex Disorders. His interdisciplinary interests extend to forensic science and clinical trials, reflecting a deep curiosity for scientific discovery. Driven by a commitment to advancing mitochondrial research, Gaurav strives to develop innovative approaches to cure mitochondrial dysfunction and improve therapeutic interventions.
