Abundant research at multiple levels indicates that estrogen- and androgen-based therapies in aging women and men, respectively, have therapeutic efficacy in reducing risk of Alzheimer and vascular diseases. This project will identify novel mimetics of estrogen (NeurosERMs) and androgens (NeurosARMs) for translational purposes that will protect the brain and vasculature but lack deleterious effects of reproductive tissues.
