Computational Modeling and Design of Oligomer Selective Vaccine Candidates for Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s Disease

Event Start:
2022-12-02T13:30:00
Event End:
2022-12-02T15:30:00
Event Information:

Protein aggregation-related diseases, in particular neurodegenerative diseases, are characterized by the aberrant perturbation of the underlying protein conformational ensemble. Effectively presenting epitopes using vaccines, to raise conformationally selective antibodies, is a central problem in treating neurodegenerative diseases.
