On this episode of #ShareScience, we spoke with Dr. Rachel Buckley, Associate Professor of Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Her research interests lie in sex differences in risk for Alzheimer’s disease, and she holds multiple NIH grants seeking to optimize women’s brain health in neurodegenerative disease, with a specific focus on the role of menopause, sex hormones and the X chromosome to impact risk and resilience to Alzheimer’s disease. In this interview, she shares information on her research and why she’s passionate about women’s health.

Rachel is a speaker in our upcoming Women's Health Series, a joint webinar series with The American Physiological Society (APS), Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR), and InsideScientific covering late-breaking research, novel discovery, fundamental principles, and research innovation in the field of women’s health and related disease models.
