Discovering and developing novel therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases

Neurons may be more well known, but #DYK that microglia outnumber them almost 3:1? Microglia and astrocytes play essential roles in the central nervous system, contributing to many functions, including homeostasis, innate immune responses and synaptic support. #BrainAwarenessWeek

Age is the greatest factor for developing #NeurodegenerativeDisease, the gradual and progressive loss of brain cells, leading to cognitive and other dysfunction. The most common, #Alzheimers and #Parkinsons, impact a combined 7+ million people in the US. #BrainAwarenessWeek

We’re heading to San Francisco next week for @JPMorgan #JPM23. Looking forward to sharing the progress we’ve made on our brain resilience-centered approach to treating #neurodegenerative diseases like #Alzheimers, #Parkinsons, and #MS.
