Research topics

Which keywords describe Maureen E. Balestra's research?

The keywords of their largest research topics: Oxidative Stress, Amyloid Hypothesis, Tau Pathology, Transcriptional Regulation, Cholesterol-lowering, Genome Engineering, Mitochondria and Reactive Oxygen Species.

Size is their works in the topics tagged with each word, from their 8 largest topics. Each links to the topic it comes from most. The words come from the keyword list OpenAlex gives each topic, not from the text of the papers, so a word can appear that none of the papers uses.
