Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia are devastating neurodegenerative diseases. Knight Initiative postdoc Yi Zeng is working to understand the role a central protein plays in both diseases—and whether it might point toward new diagnostics and treatments Image Research news | Nov 10 2025 Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience A new ultrasound technique could help aging and injured brains Neuroradiologist Raag Airan and his lab have found a non-invasive, drug-free method to help clean the brain, reduce inflammation, and treat disease—and with Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience support, they plan to test it in people soon. Image Knight Initiative news | Nov 5 2025 Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience ‘Mind-blowing’ new perspectives on brain health and disease The Knight Initiative’s Fall Symposium featured researchers building new molecular atlases of the brain alongside new updates on neurodegenerative disease and what might be done about it.
