Research project awarded by NIH/NIA to study microglial response to amyloid-beta plaques in Alzheimer's Disease through epigenetic regulation by PRC2.
Description
This is a research project funded by the NIH/NIA focusing on microglial response mechanisms in Alzheimer's Disease, involving epigenetic regulation via the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). The project includes animal models and molecular biology techniques to investigate TREM2 signaling pathways and microglial phenotypes.
