He is a recently elected member of the National Academy of Sciences, is currently a professor. In 2011, he received the Robert A. Pritzker Prize for Leadership in Parkinson Research from the Michael J. Fox Foundation. His research group pioneered studies of neural transplantation to the brain in the 1970s, and the Lund neural transplantation program he leads has been one of the leading clinical programs for the development of restorative therapies in Parkinson’s disease worldwide. During the last decade his lab has pioneered the use of the viral vectors for neurotrophic factor delivery to the brain and has been in the forefront of the development of this technology as a neuroprotective and restorative factor for the nigrostriatal dopamine system and its application in Parkinson's disease.ver menos
