Elrod, PhD, Associate Professor of Pharmacology and Associate Professor in the Center for Translational Medicine at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University (LKSOM), is the senior investigator on a new study published online in the journal Nature Communications. Dr. Elrod and a team of LKSOM researchers were the first to link maladaptive changes in calcium transport by mitochondria – the energy-producing powerhouses of cells – to the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.
