About
Lynne Ramsay is a Researcher at Newcastle University, with a focus on neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia with Lewy bodies and hereditary ferritinopathy. Her work investigates biochemical and neuropathological mechanisms, including protein aggregation and neurotransmitter systems.
Research Interests:
- Neurodegenerative disease progression
- Role of GABAergic neurons in visual hallucinations
- Impact of protein mutations on neurological disorder pathology
- Diagnostic accuracy in Lewy body dementias
Recent Publications:
- 2021: Studied ferritin light chain mutations in hereditary ferritinopathy, highlighting protein aggregation without mitochondrial/oxidative stress involvement.
- 2016: Explored GABAergic neuron changes in the visual cortex of dementia with Lewy bodies patients, linked to complex hallucinations.
- 2015: Investigated whether β-amyloid load affects clinical diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies, finding no significant impact.
