The 2025 Team 💜

Just published in Nat. Neurosci. Led by J.P. Ferrari-Souza, this study used imaging & fluid biomarkers to reveal that microglia modulate Aβ-related astrocyte reactivity, which in turn contributes to AD progression. @erzimmer.bsky.social @natureportfolio.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Yesterday, we had the honor of hosting Dr. @mateferretti.bsky.social for a special lab meeting in a packed auditorium. Her visit to Porto Alegre brought invaluable insights and inspiring discussions. We are grateful for her time, expertise, and passion. Thank you for inspiring us all!

🎉 Congratulations to our PhD student @giovannacollar.bsky.social for receiving the AAIC Neuroscience Next ‘One to Watch’ Award at #AAICNeuro 🇺🇸! A well-deserved recognition by the @alzassociation.bsky.social for her contributions to neuroscience research. 👏✨

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 starts next week! In 2025, 12 hubs will offer lectures, poster presentations, networking sessions, and workshops. @alzassociation.bsky.social Click the link to see our participation at 5 of these hubs! tinyurl.com/3th28xfd

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...

Hello, #Bluesky! With so many voices making their way to this new community, we are excited to enter the conversation. #ENDALZ

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...

Valuing diversity and mutual learning: two researchers from Nigeria have joined our team, further enriching our international collaborations and expanding horizons in the laboratory. #science #diversity

This international event aims to support and showcase the next generation of researchers and clinicians, providing a plataform for knowledge exchange Be part of what's next in neuroscience ⚠️ Limited spots available 📝 Free registration #neuroscience #neurobiology #neuropsychology #psychology #aaic
