The Grinberg Lab investigates the basic principles and pathogenesis of aging and early stage neurodegenerative disease using postmortem human tissue from normal controls and patients.
The Grinberg lab develops and utilizes advanced computing pipelines to validate neuroimaging modalities such as PET with post-mortem histological evaluation.
The Grinberg Lab is part of the UCSF Memory and Aging Center - a large and dynamic multi-professional group dedicated to researching the causes and cures for degenerative brain diseases.
The Grinberg Lab regularly participates in education and outreach events. Check here for upcoming public education events involving Grinberg Lab researchers or the Memory and Aging Center as a whole.
