Dean’s Lecture | Dr. Leonard Petrucelli | Mechanistic and Therapeutic Insights into FTD/ALS

Join Us! Dean’s Distinguished Lecture with Dr. Leonard Petrucelli 

Examine the neuropathology of FTD/ALS and Alzheimer’s, the impact of TDP-43 loss on cellular function and emerging biomarkers for diagnosis and monitoring

Dr. Petrucelli is at the forefront of research investigating the cellular mechanisms that cause diseases characterized by abnormal protein aggregation such as Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

In expanding upon his commitment to understanding the causes of such diseases, Dr. Petrucelli is now emphasizing translational research geared toward identifying and developing therapies for treatment and prevention.
