The lab has relocated to Brown University in Providence, RI, as Bess begins her appointment as the Salame-Feraud Director of the Center for Alzheimer's Disease Research, a joint initiative between the Robert J. and Nancy D. Carney Institute for Brain Science and the Division of Biology and Medicine. We are looking forward to the many opportunities for collaboration in the wide range of disciplines at Brown, as well as continued bridging of basic science with clinical studies.

We are excited to announce a new Frost lab publication focused on the effects of pathogenic tau on protein translation: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/acel.14245 This study was led by Dr. Gabbe Zuniga, who was inspired to analyze the effects of tau on translation due to her previous discovery that error-containing RNA transcripts accumulate in tauopathy due to failed clearance via nonsense-mediated RNA decay. In the current study, Gabbe found that the rate of tra
