Stefan Nicolau

Stefan Nicolau's work focuses on neuromuscular disorders, especially muscular dystrophies (like Duchenne and Becker) and rare myopathies, covering their genetic causes, disease mechanisms, and emerging treatments such as gene therapy and CRISPR-based gene editing. The research combines clinical case studies, molecular diagnostics, and therapeutic development, often in collaboration with multi-site clinical consortia. This work would suit students interested in translational neuromuscular disease research bridging molecular biology and clinical medicine.

Publication output has grown from very low levels in 2017-2018 to a sustained higher rate since 2019, with year-to-year fluctuation but consistent activity averaging about 7-8 papers per year over the last five years.
