Normative modelling of resting-state EEG across the lifespan for application in the early diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer’s disease

University of Dundee School of Humanities, Social Sciences and Law

With a rapidly aging human population worldwide, neurodegenerative diseases represent a pressing medical and societal concern. Given the increase in life expectancy, dementia is expected to affect almost 152 million people by 2050 (Alzheimer’s Disease International, 2018). Read more

Investigations into the protective actions of CBD in the early synaptic deficits in dementia.

University of Dundee School of Medicine

Accumulation of hyper-phosphorylated tau is a key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aberrant changes in tau cause synaptic abnormalities and cognitive deficits in early AD. Read more

Investigating Lysosomal Dysfunction in Ageing and Neurodegeneration

University of Dundee School of Medicine

Lysosomes are key cellular organelles that degrade and recycle macromolecules, act as signalling hubs and are implicated in many diseases including Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) where old age is a major risk factor. Read more

Role of the endosomal pathway in regulating sleep and circadian rhythms

University of York York Biomedical Research Institute

Ageing and many neurodegenerative disorders are characterised by a progressive loss of neurons in particular brain regions leading to behavioural changes including cognitive decline, sleep disruption and circadian dysregulation. Read more
