Project Summary
In aging neurons, the accumulation of key misfolded proteins into aggregates is a hallmark of many

neurodegenerative diseases. For example, pathological forms of TDP43 become mislocalized to the cytoplasm

and accumulate in aggregates in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and other Alzheimer Disease-related

Dementias (ADRD). Highly…
