Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Sarah E Burke"
- Sarah E Burke's recent research primarily focuses on neurodegenerative diseases, particularly frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), utilizing advanced imaging techniques such as T1-weighted MRI and innovative machine learning models to analyze patterns of brain pathology and volume loss.
- Her studies have unveiled distinct cortical atrophy patterns associated with different FTLD proteinopathies (tau vs. TDP), contributing to the understanding of disease progression and facilitating more accurate antemortem diagnoses.
- Burke's work also extends to understanding cognitive fatigue in both aging populations and those with Parkinson's disease, where she investigates the structural brain correlates of fatigue and how it manifests behaviorally and neurologically in varying age groups.
