"Circadian clocks in brain aging and Alzheimer's Disease," by Erik S. Musiek, MD, PhD, Charlotte & Paul Hagemann Professor of Neurology, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis
This seminar will focus on the bi-directional relationships between aging, Alzheimer's Disease, and the circadian system. The talk will explore the role of the circadian clock in regulating aspects of neurodegenerative disease, including glial function, protein aggregation, and neuroinflammation, with an emphasis on emerging molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies.
