New clues uncovered about toxic protein structures in neurodegenerative diseases
Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News: Witold K. Surewicz, the Robert F Bennett MD Professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at the School of Medicine, spoke about new research that provides clues about how toxic proteins clump and spread between nerve cells in the brain—and may lead to the development of new therapeutics to treat diseases such as ALS and frontotemporal dementia.
