Research Focus
Dr. Ivana Delalle's lab at Boston University focuses on understanding the role of microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and related dementias. The lab aims to identify and validate specific RNA signatures as biomarkers for early diagnosis and potential therapeutic targets. By utilizing advanced techniques and large-scale study samples, the research bridges the gap between genetic and environmental factors contributing to AD.
