@beyoung40.bsky.social speaking about the @rushalzheimers.bsky.social Latino Core in Lima for the @alzassociation.bsky.social #AAICSatellite. Plus, she shouted out the team! @drmlamar.bsky.social and Dr. David Marquez She’s so good! @alzdemjournals.bsky.social

Dr. @erzimmer.bsky.social in action at the #AAICSatellite in Peru, presenting the landscape of 🩸biomarkers in Brazil. His talk highlighted key advances and outlined promising perspectives to boost Brazil’s response to dementia — from research to public health @alzassociation.bsky.social

What a spectacular event the first @embo.org #Astrocyte Workshop was!

An inspiring kickoff to the #EMBOastrocytes workshop honoring the legacy of #ElenaGalea

We are HIRING!! Postdoc for multimodal imaging lab at Yale. If you get excited about preclinical and prodromal states, atypical Alzheimer’s, graph theory, predictive modeling, and/or baked goods at lab meetings, come join us: postdocs.yale.edu/postdoctoral... Please share with your circles!

I hope you haven’t missed this awesome new study by @caromenard666.bsky.social’s team, where the dreamy keys worlds #astrocyte and #BloodBrainBarrier coexist 🤩🥰

So excited to share the work of the fantastic Katarzyna, 1st 🧪PhD student of my lab 🧠, out in @natureneuro.bsky.social 🥂🥳 Cheers to the team, thanks to our precious collaborators and support from @braincanada.bsky.social #CIHR @fondsrechercheqc.bsky.social #newPI www.nature.com/articles/s41...

#AAICNeuro Cameroon Hub: Day Two!

Kickoff of #AAICNeuro in Porto Alegre! 🌎 This week, 12 hubs worldwide will showcase the next generation of Alzheimer’s & dementia researchers and clinicians. Stay tuned for updates throughout the day! @alzassociation.bsky.social @erzimmer.bsky.social #CristianoAguzzoli

#AAICneuro POA Hub just started in our beloved Porto Alegre 🇧🇷! A great pleasure to co-host the event with #CristianoAguzzoli @zimmerneurolab.bsky.social @alzassociation.bsky.social

Despite carrying a genetic mutation associated with early-onset #Alzheimer’s, a man remained free of dementia symptoms for at least 2 decades longer than expected 👉 genetic variants may explain this remarkable resilience. See more here: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Important work by #JorgeLibre-Guerra and team on @naturemedicine.bsky.social about genetic resilience to early onset #alzheimers👇 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

@stforner.bsky.social presenting the @alzassociation.bsky.social global funding programs at #FloripaNeuro 🇧🇷

Incredibly happy to share this co-first publication in the Lancet Global Health with #DaRos and #Aguzzoli guided by the brilliant @erzimmer.bsky.social

In 🇧🇷, and probably in most countries with high levels of disparities and inequalities, education is one the most important risk factors for cognitive decline! Amazing work by #LucasdaRos @vbwyll.bsky.social #CristianoAguzzoli and team @thelancet.bsky.social

Check out our group's new study highlighting the importance of understanding the population in the Global South! 👇 Congrats #LucasdaRos @vbwyll.bsky.social @erzimmer.bsky.social

New Study just out in The Lancet Global Health! #LucasDaRos, @vbwyll.bsky.social, #CristianoAguzzoli & colleagues used a machine learning model to determine the most important risk factors for cognitive and functional decline in Brazil and other LATAM Countries 🧵 www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Our comment on a very interesting @elife.bsky.social paper showing how S1PR signaling may underlie pain-associated memory impairment is now out! Check it out! elifesciences.org/articles/105...

FDG is a key clinical tool for all degenerative diseases of the mind.

A must read for people working with amyloid and tau PET👇👇👇

Take a look at this awesome perspective from @limberger-chris.bsky.social and @erzimmer.bsky.social! Check it out! 👇

We just published a thing! In this study, we provide compelling evidence that a lack of microglia during early brain development does not lead to wholesale alterations of synaptic and cellular function. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our spotlight on @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social, commenting on this great article by the Herfert Group 👇

There are some books I have read multiple times, and each time feels like a completely new experience. One of them is Gabo’s “Cien años de soledad”—what a wonderful read! 👇 This special edition is truly beautiful, with so many amazing illustrations!

The year is coming to a close, and we’ve just signed a major Alzheimer’s blood biomarkers program with the Brazilian Ministry of Health! Exciting science with a clear goal to make a real impact is on the way!🩸🇧🇷

The Neurobiology Division at the MRC LMB is looking for a new group leader: www.nature.com/naturecareer...

Exciting news this Christmas: our spotlight, led by @limberger-chris.bsky.social, on Haas, Bravo et al. 2024 is out now in @cp-trendsneuro.bsky.social 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @zimmerneurolab.bsky.social

Today I turned 40! My tip for young scientists (and everyone else): Learn from the past, envision the future, but always live in the present. 💜

This is very useful to understand @altmetric.com score! 👇👇👇

Homeostatic microglia initially seed and activated microglia later reshape amyloid plaques in Alzheimer’s Disease This further adds to the mounting evidence that microglia are perhaps much better at Aβ plaque formation than plaque clearance. What a fantastic study 🤩

This one from Bruno Mota (not on sky yet) is a clever way to characterise the brain. A physical model carefully applied to describe biology/physiology. www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1...
