Research summary

Bernardino Ghetti studies neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and related dementias, focusing on how proteins like tau and alpha-synuclein misfold and clump together in the brain. Much of the work identifies the detailed structures of these protein aggregates, links genetic variants to disease subtypes, and develops sensitive laboratory tests and potential treatments to detect or block these harmful protein deposits.

Publication output has been steady and high across the decade, generally 23-34 papers per year, with lower counts in 2025-2026 that likely reflect incomplete recent indexing.
