Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Todd Cohen"
- Todd Cohen's recent research primarily focuses on the pathologies associated with neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease, and the mechanisms underlying tau protein modifications, including acetylation and phosphorylation, which are pivotal in tau-related disorders.
- Another significant area of Cohen's work involves examining the interaction between genetic factors and treatment responsiveness in prostate cancer, including the efficacy of genomic testing as a decision-making tool for active surveillance versus definitive treatment strategies.
- Cohen's studies also explore the links between sleep disruption, immune responses, and neurodegeneration, investigating how these factors may contribute to cognitive decline and the selective vulnerability of neurons in conditions like Giant Axonal Neuropathy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
