His Alzheimer's disease research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Immunization, Immunology, Genetically modified mouse, Pharmacology and Degenerative disease.

His Degenerative disease research is classified as research in Pathology. His work deals with themes such as Genetic counseling, Case-control study and PSEN2, which intersect with Mutation. His PSEN2 research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Missense mutation and Exon.

Between 2001 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • Therapeutically effective antibodies against amyloid-β peptide target amyloid-β residues 4−10 and inhibit cytotoxicity and fibrillogenesis (422 citations)
  • Therapeutically effective antibodies against amyloid-β peptide target amyloid-β residues 4−10 and inhibit cytotoxicity and fibrillogenesis (422 citations)
  • LRRK2 gene in Parkinson disease: Mutation analysis and case control association study (141 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Mutation
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Alzheimer's disease, Genetics, Pharmacology, Immunology and Genetically modified mouse. Alzheimer's disease is the subject of his research, which falls under Pathology. When carried out as part of a general Genetics research project, his work on Allele, Proband and Gene is frequently linked to work in Penetrant, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His Pharmacology research incorporates elements of Peptide and Antibody, Immunization, Antigen. His research in Immunology intersects with topics in Cognitive decline, Cognitive disorder and Degenerative disease. His Genetically modified mouse research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Neurogenesis, Neuropathology, PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and Latrepirdine.
