Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Akihiro Nakaya"

  • - Akihiro Nakaya's recent research primarily focuses on understanding the genetic and polygenic influences on Alzheimer's disease, particularly in non-European populations, as demonstrated in studies correlating polygenic risk scores with disease phenotypes in the Japanese cohort.
  • - His work also extends into plant genetics, where he developed a comprehensive portal (Plant GARDEN) for cross-referencing genomic and genetic data across various plant species, enhancing accessibility for broader research applications.
  • - Additionally, Nakaya contributes to understanding the genetic underpinnings of various diseases, including studies on mild cognitive impairment, mitochondrial disease in children, and the effects of obesity and diabetes on Alzheimer’s disease pathology, showcasing a multidisciplinary approach to both human health and plant biology.
