Description of the research topic:
Many of the challenges axons face relate to their extreme length. Axons have a higher risk of focal transport blocks (e.g. injury, inflammation), present a larger target for diffuse transport impairment (e.g. in poorly oxygenated tissue or genetic disorders) and require longer to deliver cargoes to their terminals. This project is designed to understand the mechanisms of axon loss during normal ageing and neurodegenerative diseases. Unravelling these pathways could be the key to finding novel therapeutic targets.
