This National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant is offered to support critical research into the Infectious Etiology of Alzheimer’s Disease. Its primary purpose is to determine if microbial pathogens play a causal role in Alzheimer’s disease development. Researchers will investigate the specific mechanisms by which these pathogens influence neurodegenerative processes associated with AD. Furthermore, the findings from this funding opportunity are intended to inform future translational studies, specifically aiding in the discovery and development of candidate therapeutics. These therapeutics will aim to regulate pathogen-associated networks and molecules, potentially offering novel treatment approaches for Alzheimer’s disease.
