Avner Friedman’s paper with an MBI postdoc (Wenrui Hao) on a mathematical model for Alzheimers Disease was selected to be featured on the homepage of the journal BMC Systems Biology.
"The present paper develops a mathematical model of AD that includes neurons, astrocytes, microglias and peripheral macrophages, as well as amyloid β aggregation and hyperphosphorylated tau proteins. The model is represented by a system of partial differential equations. The model is used to simulate the effect of drugs that either failed in clinical trials, or are currently in clinical trials."
