Summary
Disease progression in Alzheimer's disease is still poorly understood. The project is based on new findings by the research team that suggest that core cellular pathways and building blocks of nerve cell connections are required to allow the spread of pathology in the brain. This project will establish whether these pathways can be used as effective targets to intercept disease progression and prevent further cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease pathology.
