Researchers: Prof Ashley Bush (Principal investigator)

Brief description Professor Ashley Bush has extensively researched the contribution of metal biochemistry to Alzheimer�s and Parkinson�s diseases. In the current proposal he will lead the clinical testing of a new drug that combats the abnormal accumulation of metals in Alzheimer�s brain pathology, he will search for abnormal metal-interactions with blood proteins as a potential predictive test, and he will study the roles of various brain proteins in regulating metal levels to maintain healthy function.
