Project info

Title: BrainSpread: Misfolded proteins spreading

Project lead and collaborators: Alessandro Crimi (lead) Luca Gherardini Aleksandra Pestka

Description: Most of neurodegenerative diseases are believed to be related to the spreading of misfolded proteins. Controversies still arise whether which path those proteins follow, and whether brain structures are damaged during this spreading or they were predisposing it.

In the project, DWI data collected from Alzheimer's patients is used. The data flow includes: preprocessing, tractography generation, connectivity matrix calculation and connectivity graph visualization. The next step is to simulate a spreading of misfolded proteins based on generated connectivity matrix and the location of seeds for Alzheimer's beta-amyloid in the brain.

Goals for Brainhack Marseille

Skills: Non-coding skills: knowledge of neuroimaging, simulation modeling Coding skills: Python programming
