Molecular Neuropathology

Molecular neuropathology is a branch of molecular pathology that focuses on understanding brain diseases at the molecular level. It studies how changes in genes, proteins, and cellular structures contribute to diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and other neurological disorders. By examining these molecular changes, researchers can identify disease mechanisms, improve diagnosis, and potentially develop targeted treatments. Essentially, it connects the science of molecules to the complex issues affecting the brain, enhancing our understanding of how these conditions develop and progress.
