In recognition of Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month #ABAM, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)’s Dr. Priyanka Narayan details her work in understanding the biology of brain cells, evaluating lipids’ role in the progression of degenerative brain diseases and both harmful and protective gene variants in Alzheimer’s disease. Most recently, Dr. Narayan and her colleagues are evaluating how a gene called ApoE can both protect against and raise the risk for Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, depending on its variant. Dr. Narayan is hopeful this research will lead to new ways of protecting against Alzheimer’s disease. Learn more: https://go.nih.gov/qNYQwMY
