Research
Our research focuses on five main areas:
- the mechanism of β-amyloid deposition in Alzheimer’s disease brains
- Presenilin, a causative gene product for familial Alzheimer’s disease
- CLAC, an Alzheimer amyloid plaque component
- the pathological role of causative gene products for Parkinson’s disease
- the large scale clinical study (J-ADNI) for the establishment of surrogate biomarkers that reflect and predict the progression of Alzheimer’s disease
