Given the crucial role of microglia in development, brain homeostasis, aging and disease, there is a growing need for human(ized) screening tools and disease models to aid in the search for new…
1. To understand the role of glia & glial genetic risk genes in cerebral proteopathies.
2. To investigate brain immune interactions to delineate how glia contribute to neuronal…

A seminal finding from our group was the observation that misfolded Aβ can act as a seed to induce further Aß misfolding and aggregation in a manner that is strikingly similar to prion…
Cerebral proteopathy is a unifying term for neurodegenerative diseases in which aggregated proteins are abnormally deposited in the brain. The hallmark proteopathy is Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In…
1. To understand how Aβ aggregation originates, spreads, and leads to neuronal dysfunction and dementia.
2. To study non-Aβ proteopathies in order to determine their similarities and…
