Aperçu du projet

The lifetime risk of developing amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is approximately 1 in 350 for men and 1 in 440 for women, making it the most common adult-onset motor neuron disease. There is no cure and poor prognosis for this devastating neurodegenerative disease, resulting in increased mortality and morbidity. With…

Aperçu du projet

TDP-43 (transactive response DNA-binding protein 43) is one of the few genes highly associated with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). Although TDP-43 mutations only occur in a small subset of ALS patients, cytoplasmic inclusions that mainly consists of TDP-43 protein aggregates are present in 97% of all ALS cases as well…

Aperçu du projet

The goal of this project is to develop new principles to treat brain disease and investigate brain function using non-invasive neurostimulation, without the side-effects of drugs. Neurostimulation is already an established treatment for many neurological and psychiatric disorders, such as major depression disorder, but the effectiveness of the method is…

Aperçu du projet

Males are 4X more likely than females to develop Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), suggesting that the biology of sex development contributes to the risk of developing this neurodevelopmental condition. We will assess whether the Y chromosome and androgens—both of which contribute to male-typical development—underlie the greater risk for ASD among…
