Award for research investigating complement-mediated synaptic removal mechanisms to prevent synaptic loss in early Alzheimer's disease.
Description
This project aims to investigate the molecular mechanisms of complement-mediated synaptic pruning in response to tauopathy, with the goal of preventing synaptic loss in early-stage Alzheimer's disease to preserve cognitive function.
