Research Interests
Dr. Kaddoumi's research focuses on translational and experimental therapeutics, including drug development, identification of novel therapeutic targets, and translational research aimed at discovering therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Her research aims to improve our understanding of how vascular factors contribute to AD and CAA, enabling us to reduce risk and develop treatments that specifically target brain vasculature function.
