Aperçu du projet

Periodontitis, a chronic oral inflammatory disease-causing tissue damage, bone deterioration and tooth loss, has been linked to Alzheimer’s disease. Porphyromonas gingivalis, a key bacterium causing periodontitis, has been found in the brain of Alzheimer’s disease patients, and it is believed to contribute to brain pathology. However, there is a lack…

Aperçu du projet

Medical imaging has changed how we study and treat brain degeneration. The best tool for imaging subtle changes to brain proteins is positron emission tomography (or PET). But that has limited availability. An equivalent tool, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is more available. But SPECT lacks radioactive probes that generate…

Aperçu du projet

When brain cells are injured during Alzheimer’s disease, those cells may either die or become too electrically excitable. This study’s objective is to design drugs that prevent harmful levels of electrical excitability in brain cells. The expected outcome of is to discover a prototype new drug for Alzheimer’s disease. This…

Aperçu du projet

My time in the Courtine laboratory provided an opportunity to obtain hands-on experience in the application of scRNA-seq to understand the pathobiology of SCI, through two different projects. The first project, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation, seeks to establish a cross-species molecular atlas of SCI, at a single-cell…
