The forthcoming official opening of the new Center for Protein Conformational Diseases was featured in the Pitt Chronicle in an article entitled “New Pitt Center Will Study Diseases Linked to Misshapen Proteins“. The Center’s website is already online, here, with listings of the faculty members and an overview of an impressive list of existing collaborative publications. This exciting new initiative further strengthens existing programs such the Pittsburgh Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases (PIND) and the Brain Institute.
