OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia worldwide, with no cure currently available. AD pathogenesis is primarily driven by cerebral accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ), a small peptide and proteolytic cleavage product of amyloid-β precursor protein (APP). Elucidating molecular mechanisms that change Aβ levels and APP processing could provide new insights for understanding disease etiology; and development of interventions that attenuate amyloid pathology may provide useful therapeutics for AD.
