OverviewAI-generated summary

Joseph Asante's research investigates the intersection of pharmacology and neurological disorders, with a particular focus on Alzheimer's disease risk and the function of proteins like P-glycoprotein. His work explores how certain medications, such as ezetimibe, may influence the risk of developing Alzheimer's and related dementias by affecting protein interactions implicated in disease progression. Asante also studies the structural and functional changes in viral proteins, specifically the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, using predictive modeling. His research network includes collaborations with Steven W. Barger, Corey Nagel, Robert J. Shmookler Reis, and Akshatha Ganne, primarily from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, evidenced by several shared publications. Asante's scholarly output includes 8 publications with an h-index of 3 and 27 citations.
