Workshop on Improving Models for Brain Aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Building better models of brain aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Amanda DiBattista, Program Director, Division of Neuroscience

Every moment counts in the pursuit of effective preventions and treatments for age-associated diseases affecting the brain. Capturing the essence of how aging and dementias such as Alzheimer’s disease affect the brain without the need to wait for aging to take place in real time has been a longstanding obstacle for researchers. 

Join us as we tackle the challenge of building better lab and computer models of brain aging and dementias during a virtual workshop April 27 and 28! Read the full blog post.
