Tel Aviv University is at the forefront of neurodegeneration research, addressing critical challenges in biology and medicine. Our distinguished faculty, including Prof. David Eilam and Prof. Naama Friedman, explore the intricacies of behavioral impairments, OCD, and developmental disorders like autism and ADHD. Prof. Doron Gothelf investigates aphasia, while Prof. Danny Frenkel focuses on Alzheimer's pathology. We employ innovative techniques such as imaging and cellular mechanisms to uncover the biological underpinnings of psychiatric diseases and neurodegenerative disorders, striving for novel therapeutic approaches.
