Working together against Alzheimer‘s, Parkinson‘s and dementia

Two institutions of the Helmholtz Association are joining forces for health research: How does the brain protect itself from pathogens? Can infections favour Alzheimer’s disease? Scientists from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Bonn and the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) in Braunschweig want to tackle such questions together over the next few years. The interdisciplinary collaboration will receive funding of approximately 600,000 Euro. The researchers hope to discover new facts about dementia and other brain diseases.
