Max Planck Florida will be able to expand their research program to investigate the neural circuits underlying Alzheimer's disease with new support.

Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLMAug 22 2023 The National Institute on Aging of the NIH has awarded Dr. Yingxue Wang $1,038,819 over three years as part of the Alzheimer's Disease Initiative Fund. The research will shed new light on how the brain forms new memories and maintains them over time and what can lead to memory decline during Alzheimer's Disease.

We are excited and honored to receive this generous funding, which will significantly impact our ability to answer important questions about how we make and maintain memories. This grant not only advances our research but symbolizes the collective hope that drives us to study this devastating condition. My lab and I are profoundly grateful for this trust and support." As part of this project, Dr. Wang will collaborate with Dr.

Related StoriesTrained as an electrical engineer, Dr. Wang completed her graduate study at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich . During her Ph.D. training, she designed brain-inspired computational systems on silicon chips. These fully reconfigurable systems incorporated electronic circuits of a network of neurons with dendrites and synapses. Using these systems as simulation tools, she also investigated the computational principles native to a neuron with active dendrites.

Intermittent fasting improves Alzheimer's pathology in mouse modelIntermittent fasting improves Alzheimer's pathology in mouse modelOne of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is disruption to the body's circadian rhythm, the internal biological clock that regulates many of our physiological processes. Nearly 80% of people with Alzheimer's experience these issues, including difficulty sleeping and worsening cognitive function at night. However, there are no existing treatments for Alzheimer's that target this aspect of the disease.
