    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    Sukriti Nag is a Board-certified neuropathologist and professor of pathology (neuropathology) at the Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center (RADC). She trained in anatomic pathology at Rhode Island Hospital (Brown University) Providence, R.I., and Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, and trained in neuropathology at Queen's University where she also obtained MSc and PhD degrees in the field of experimental neuropathology. Her grant-funded research initially at Queen’s University and later at the University of Toronto was in the area of the biology of cerebral endothelium and the reactivity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in health and disease with emphasis on the pathogenesis of BBB breakdown in CNS disorders. She has received several awards for her work. She started at the RADC in August of 2010. In addition to collaborative research, she provides the neuropathology diagnosis for brains received in 3 longitudinal studies of aging - the Rush Religious Orders Study, the Memory and Aging Project and the Minority Aging Research Project. Her research interests are neurodegenerative diseases, cerebrovascular diseases and the neurovascular unit (BBB).

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
