"Joining the UCL Institute of Neurology has opened up a world of new opportunities to my team. We formed exciting joint projects with colleagues at the Institute, and thereby started to address new roles of RNA biology in the functions and dysfunctions of the brain. I’m honoured to be part of the shared vision of this great place."  Professor Jernej Ule

"I have been fortunate to be surrounded by so many talented people at UCL ION. This Institute is a veritable factory for neurological discoveries, and I hope to continue to add to its success by translating basic science findings into useful therapies in patients with neurological diseases.” Professor Tom Foltynie
