Braiding Braak and Braak: Staging patterns and model selection in network neurodegeneration
2021-01-21
Abstract excerpt
A hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease is the aggregation of insoluble amyloid-beta plaques and tau protein neurofibrillary tangles. A key histopathological observation is that tau protein aggregates follow a structured progression pattern through the brain. Mathematical network models of prion-like propagation have the ability to capture such patterns but a number of factors impact the observed staging result, thus in...
