Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerr, F., Rogers, I., Martinez, P., Hardy, J., Lovestone, S., & Partridge, L. (2012, July). P1‐274: Ageing increases vulnerability to Aβ42 toxicity in drosophila. Presented at Alzheimer 's Association International Conference 2012, Vancouver, British C

Background Ageing is the major risk factor for the development of many neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease (AD). One of the major unresolved questions in the AD field asks why neurodegeneration occurs late in life. This associa...

Age is the major risk factor for many neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease (AD), for reasons that are not clear. The association could indicate that the duration or degree of exposure to toxic proteins is important for pathology,... Read More about Ageing Increases Vulnerability to Aβ42 Toxicity in Drosophila.
