Uncovering How Gene Regulators Protect Neurons Against Alzheimer's
Principal Investigator
Project Goals
This study will focus on understanding how epigenetic factors, especially transcriptional repressors, influence gene expression in neurons and contribute to Alzheimer's disease. The research aims to identify how these transcriptional repressors protect neurons from Alzheimer's-related stress, potentially leading to new treatments for enhancing brain resilience against Alzheimer’s.
