Revolutionizing Alzheimer’s Research: Cornell Scientists Develop Groundbreaking Neuron Model


Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed an innovative human neuron model that robustly simulates the spread of tau protein aggregates in the brain—a process that drives cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. This new model has led to the identification of n
