The Taubman Institute inaugurated a monthly Visiting Professors series Wednesday, Sept. 21, with a presentation by noted Alzheimer’s expert, Dr. Gary Landreth of Case Western Reserve in the Danto Auditorium of the Cardiovascular Center.

Speaking to an audience of more than 50 scientists and students from throughout the U-M campus, Dr. Landreth explained his lab’s progress in identifying xxx that someday could help doctors reverse the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.  The presentation was followed by a question-and-answer session and informal reception.

In the coming months, the Taubman Institute will host other eminent researchers.
