Proteomics
In this virtual session, we dive into the molecular characteristics of alpha synuclein–mediated microglial activation, pathogenic mutations associated with frontotemporal dementia, and how phage counter their host’s defensive response.
The talks in this virtual event were originally programmed to take place as an in-person Spotlight Session at the 2020 ASBMB Annual Meeting.
