Bhumsoo Kim, Ph.D. and Sarah Elzinga, Ph.D.
Research scientist Bhumsoo Kim, Ph.D. and postdoctoral fellow Sarah Elzinga, Ph.D. report their latest scientific findings that proteins in the brain known to promote Alzheimer’s disease are significantly increased in response to eating a high fat diet and becoming obese. The scientific team of Kim and Elzinga then went on to investigate how select growth factors, proteins that support nerve growth and health, block the accumulation of these damaging proteins and may be viable new treatment options for Alzheimer’s disease.
