Research project funded by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke to study inter-organelle communication in tauopathy using tau mouse models.
Description
This project aims to investigate the role of inter-organelle communication, specifically between autophagosomes and mitochondria, in tauopathy. The study involves overexpression of TBC1D15 in tau mouse models and explores mechanisms underlying tau-related neurodegeneration.
