Dr. Stephen Ginsberg Key Contributor to Nature Communications Paper

New York – A recent article published in the January 16, 2020 issue of Nature Communications, titled “The epichaperome is a mediator of toxic hippocampal stress and leads to protein connectivity-based dysfunction,” provides novel evidence of a pathological process underlying Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological disorders, and suggests a new potential therapeutic target. This research where Dr. Stephen Ginsburg of the CDR was a key contributor, is referenced and discussed in the January 2020 Alzforum commentary (“In AD, Chaperones Congregate to Form a Therapeutic Target”) and on the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center website (“Study Reveals a New Way That Stress and Aging Lead to Alzheimer’s”).
