Our lab was recently featured on UCI News!

"The researchers are developing sophisticated methods using brain imaging technology to understand the mechanisms of Alzheimer’s disease and predict its onset before any outward manifestations. If successful, their work will pave the way for effective preventive treatments that will substantially increase quality of life for patients and reduce the burden on families and the healthcare system."

Researchers hope to develop brain imaging tools for pre-symptomatic diagnosis
