Yet, the mechanisms by which microglia can drive neurodegeneration remain unresolved. Here, we discover that a conserved stress signaling […]
Huntington’s disease (HD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are both neurodegenerative disorders that, despite differing in their underlying causes and specific symptoms, share several key features. These include age-related onset, progressive neuronal dysfunction and loss, cognitive decline, and a range of behavioral and psychiatric symptoms. Dr. Ferguson’s research presentation will explore the role and sex-specificity of […]
