Executive Summary :

This research intend to perform a high-throughput compound screening to find a potent inhibitor against multiple stresses. The project outcome will give insights, ideas, and perspective to glial biologists with respect to microglial plasticity; and the approach will identify new lead small molecules targeting neurodegenerative diseases.
