Our research delves into the crucial role of microRNAs in neurodegenerative diseases and neurotrauma. We are particularly focused on investigating the modulation of neuroinflammation in Alzheimer’s disease, related dementias, and neurotrauma. We aim to deepen our understanding of neurodegeneration and develop innovative treatments to prevent and combat these debilitating conditions.
