Your job
Do you want to help find out what is really going on in Alzheimer's disease? Why does the disease sweep through the brain in such a determined manner? Why do amyloid aggregates form in certain brain regions and not others? Why are some brain regions devastated and others spared?
In our previous work, we have identified a new mode of amyloid interactions based on local sequence similarity to aggregation-prone regions and the National Institute on Aging has just granted us a 5-year project to investigate the interaction of amyloid-beta and tau with other brain region-specific
The project entails:
