Kaitlin Casaletto

Researcher, Memory and Aging Center, UC San Francisco

Casaletto works at UCSF's Edward and Pearl Fein Memory and Aging Center and was a senior author of a study linking menopause-related blood proteins to later brain health. She has said the findings do not mean menopause causes Alzheimer's disease.
