FENS 2020
Alzheimer’s Disease

Synapse degeneration is the strongest pathological correlate of cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease. Tara Spires-Jones, PhD, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK, discusses the contribution of neuron-glia interactions in synapse degeneration and how genes that increase disease risk influence these processes. This interview was recorded during an online conference call with The Video Journal of Neurology (VJNeurology).
