Exciting advances in Alzheimer's research! 🧠🐭 The creation of the first mouse models in the 1990s revolutionized our understanding of AD. From early transgenic mice with human mutations to the latest knock-in models, these tools have been essential for developing new therapies. With the discovery of various genetic and lifestyle risk factors for AD, there is a greater need for animal models that capture the disease's complexity. To meet this demand, the National Institute on Aging funded two MODEL-AD Centers to develop and study these models, sharing their findings and resources with the research community.
