The primary research focus of R. Ross Reichard, M.D., is the neuropathological characterization of the brains of individuals who have been enrolled in large longitudinal studies through the Alzheimer's Disease Research Center at Mayo Clinic and the Mayo Clinic Study of Aging.
After death, participants' brains undergo neuropathological evaluations that provide a pathological diagnosis to integrate with rich clinical, genetic and imaging data. Collaborations with researchers and clinicians provide insights into neurodegenerative diseases and typical aging while honoring the patients who have so generously participated in these studies.
Dr. Reichard also conducts research on a range of neurodegenerative diseases and pediatric neuropathology, which includes traumatic brain injury (TBI) and sudden unexpected death in childhood.
The neuropathological evaluations conducted by Dr. Reichard provide a final pathological diagnosis to patients' families, which brings closure and may provide important information for their future medical care. Neuropathological diagnoses help providers and researchers understand the clinical manifestation of the underlying pathological processes, are part of a large data repository, and are integrated into many different studies.
