Adam Haberman, PhD, has a personal connection to his work. He’d always studied cell biology and the health of neurons, but once his father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, he felt a new urge to study the disease and improve our understanding of it. On “At the Edge of It All,” he helped explain what we know about how diseases affect our brain cells, and how his work with undergrads on fruit flies is contributing to a greater understanding that could someday cure the disease that’s affected his family and so many others.
