Keenan Walker, PhD profile page

Dr. Walker’s research program investigates how immune function contributes to Alzheimer’s disease and cognitive decline in later life. His lab integrates proteomic, genetic, and epigenetic analyses with multimodal neuroimaging to explore the connections between peripheral immune activity, neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. Leveraging data from large population-based cohort studies, Dr. Walker’s team aims to uncover novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets to help predict, prevent, and treat Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.
