Researchers at Pennsylvania University aim to uncover the underlying biological mechanisms of TBI-related neurodegeneration

A team of researchers led by Penn Medicine will spend the subsequent five years using a $10 million grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) to review the link between traumatic brain injury (TBI) and Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD). Using an in depth tissue bank of over 1,000 samples, […]
