Aubert is a senior scientist in Biological Sciences at SRI. The focus of her research is the brain. She aims to develop therapies that prevent loss of brain cells and promote growth of new neurons in Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. In July 2019, she was awarded a one-year Project Grant worth $100,000 from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. She will investigate the possibility of using genetically engineered brain cells to make antibodies that fight the toxic proteins of Alzheimer’s disease.
