Description preview

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Growing evidence reports that women show a more aggressive profile of
Alzheimer's disease (AD) than men with greater pathological tau burden and steeper cognitive decline; yet the

reasons for these sex differences are poorly understood. Sex differences in AD point to sex-disparate causal

pathways as well as sex-specific…
