Advances in Motor neuron disease treatments: Research at The University of Queensland could eventually help develop viable treatments – and ultimately a cure – for motor neuron disease (MND). Dr Adam Walker and co-authors Dr Rebecca San Gil, Dr Wei Luan and PhD student Sean Keating from the Queensland Brain Institute have identified biochemical changes in a protein that is affected by MND. TDP-43 is a protein found in every cell of the body but is particularly important for the health of motor neurons, the brain cells that control voluntary muscle movement,” Dr Walker said. “We ran two research projects,
