Dr.
Nathan's research centers around neuroscience with special interest in
neurological diseases. His current research is aimed at understanding the
pathological pathways that lead to death of brain cells in aging humans, and
predisposes them to dementia such as Alzheimer's disease. A wide range of
molecular, biochemical, and cellular techniques are used in his laboratory. He
has received funding from the Alzheimer's Association and the National Institute
of Health, and has published in several journals including Science.
