1. Evaluate the clinical and experimental evidence linking viral infections to the risk, onset, or progression of neurodegenerative diseases, with a focus on Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
  2. Explain how antiviral host defenses may shift from protective responses to drivers of neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration.
  3. Explore how endogenous protective mechanisms, particularly autophagy, might be therapeutically leveraged to limit virus-associated neuronal injury.
