Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVolodymyr Cherkas is an assistant professor and neuroscientist with 13 years of experience unraveling intracellular signaling in hippocampal neurons and astrocytes, grounded in PhD work on Hippocalcin. He combines hands-on cellular neurophysiology with advanced microscopy (MINFLUX, STED, SIM, FLIM) and develops novel single-molecule localization methods to track synaptic proteins in live cells. Having led research groups across Europe, he now heads an interdisciplinary team integrating superresolution imaging, molecular dynamics, and custom data-analysis tools. In 2023 he secured over 1.9 million PLN in grants to study dystonia linked to Hippocalcin mutations, reflecting both translational focus and successful funding. Colleagues rely on him for instrument design, microscopy system integration, and turning technical limitations into new experimental capabilities.
