Translational Neurodegeneration: 10th Anniversary

1652107005Inaugurated in 2012 under the editorship and leadership of Dr. Shengdi Chen, the mission of Translational Neurodegeneration (TN) is to promote and foster rapid conversion of basic science research to clinical applications by offering a high-visibility forum for groundbreaking translational research in neurodegenerative diseases and to ultimately benefit not only patients but also societies. 

In this Editorial, the editors have reviewed the splendid progresses in the journal during the past ten years, and discussed the goals to achieve in the next ten years.
