and are among the most disabling and complex conditions plaguing humankind. As populations around the world are living longer, neurodegenerative disorders have been rising in prevalence at an unprecedented pace. Effective treatments for these conditions are lacking and urgently needed.</p> <p>Consequently, scientists at the Gladstone Institute of Neurological Disease maintain a strong focus on neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, Parkinson’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis. Because of intriguing overlaps between these conditions and other challenging brain diseases, they also study epilepsy and neuropsychiatric disorders, such as autism and obsessive compulsive disorders.</p> <p>The investigators are searching for common threads that will allow them to identify therapeutic interventions that might benefit multiple conditions. They are using unconventional approaches to identify such multi-faceted solutions, while also leveraging capabilities in regenerative and personalized medicine.</p> <p>To prepare tomorrow’s scientists for this mission, they are strongly committed to training and mentoring at all levels of education. <a href="/training">Learn more about Gladstone’s training programs</a>.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div id="directorquote"> <div class="row"> <div id="directormug"></div> <div class="dquote"> <div class="dquote-text"> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-director-quote-text field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>“We are on the cusp of several important advancements to better understand, prevent, treat, and—ultimately—cure some of the most devastating diseases affecting the central nervous system.” </p> </div> <div class="dname"> <div class="field field--name-field-director-name field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Lennart Mucke, MD</div> </div> <em> <div class="field field--name-field-director-title field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Director, Gladstone Institute of Neurological Disease</div> </em> <div id="dirvisbutt"> <a href="#vision" class="button white">Director’s Message</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="accordion-wrapper"> <div class="container"> <h2>Major Scientific Achievements</h2> <div class="accordion accord1"><h3> <div class="field field--name-field-achievement-1-title field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item">Discovered Ways to Counteract Genetic Risk Factors of Alzheimer’s Disease</div> </h3></div> <div class="panel"> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-achievement-1 field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p>Gladstone scientists used disease models to identify molecular, cellular, and network mechanisms by which amyloid proteins and apolipoprotein E4 (apoE4), the most important genetic risk factor for the disease, may contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
