A new study looking at mitochondria fusion suggests that it may play a more complex role than previously thought in controlling synaptic function & its malfunction in diseases like #Alzheimers & #PD.🔬🧠 bit.ly/3QqNUQF #dementia #brainhealth
🎉And on this final day of #StressAwarenessMonth, here's SBS Research Officer, Dr Makis Tzioras, with a fascinating explanation of how stress can affect the brain, leaving us more vulnerable to #Alzheimers...and how we can maintain #brainhealth! bit.ly/4d3zX4E
It's Slightly Off-Topic Tuesday, where we hope to share some non-brain related (but #interesting) posts with you! 🙌 In Egypt, the discovery of mummified kings & queens is nothing new...but how about mummified crocodiles?😲🐊 bit.ly/49CmI8g #historyfacts #archaeology
We know that the job of being a #carer can take a significant mental & emotional toll. 😞 @alzheimerssoc recognises that and has launched a new "mental wellbeing in the workplace" app to support & enable positive wellbeing for its UK employees. 🫂👏 bit.ly/49HaMSv
A recent stem cell study out of @USC experimented with lab-grown organoids to reveal how to protect the brain against dementia and ALS following traumatic brain injury. 🧬🔬🧠 bit.ly/3UlW3rT #Alzheimers #dementia #ALS #TBI #concussion
Alzheimer's is more common in women...and this recent study from @UChicago may help explain why. 🧠🔬♀️ bit.ly/3JqoQoO #Alzheimers #dementia #brainhealth
Welcome to #BrainFactsFriday, where we share some pretty amazing facts about our pretty amazing brains. 🧐🧠 #BrainFacts #BrainHealth #Didyouknow #interestingfacts
Wonderful trip to London today for the 2nd annual #UKConcussionPreventionNetwork conference. Such a pleasure to share the stage with 🇨🇦 colleagues @PFuselli and @sbwellr 🤩. #concussion #education #knowledgetranslation 🙌🏼
Researchers in China and the U.S. have found that chronic musculoskeletal pain could be linked to a ⬆️risk of #Alzheimers & #dementia. People with knee osteoarthritis were found to have more rapid brain aging than people without it.🦵🧠🔬 Take a look: bit.ly/4d2EAvJ
A global study has found altered brain pH & lactate levels across various animal models of brain disorders. This reveals a common metabolism dysfunction as a hallmark in disorders such as #schizophrenia, #autism, & #Alzheimers.🧠🔬 bit.ly/3Qa6zzT

As it's still #StressAwarenessMonth, it seems like an apropos time to share a recent study from @ISGLOBALorg, examining how stressful experiences in midlife or childhood may be associated with a ⬆️ risk of developing #Alzheimers & #neuroinflammation.😖🧠🔬 bit.ly/3vP1R3Q
One of our esteemed SBS Scientific Advisors, Prof Tara Spires-Jones (@TSpiresJones), takes a closer look into the advancement that might help us detect and treat Alzheimer's disease years in advance. 🧠🔬🩸 bit.ly/4d26MyY #Alzheimers #dementia #biomarkers
It's Slightly Off-Topic Tuesday, where we hope to share some non-brain related (but #interesting) posts with you! 🙌 If you ever needed a reminde that nature is pretty amazing, here you go...😲😍🌳 #sciencefacts #naturefacts #oaktree #albarpine #nature
Could RT inhibitors be useful in treating #Alzheimers? A recent study builds on previous findings that could pave the way for new therapeutic strategies. 🧠🔬 bit.ly/3JoASPB
College football is a big deal in the US🏈...but when it comes to persuing breakthroughs in research dealing with #Alzheimers occurence in women, even diehard rivals like Duke & UNC can come together to make a difference 🧠🔬🤝 bit.ly/3vCdtal #dementia #Duke_UNC_ADRC
In the past, gait analysis has been used as a non-invasive compliment to cognitive assessment tools in early diagnosis of #Alzheimers. But this "first of its kind" study is taking that one step further (pardon the pun)...to "curved path walking."🚶🚶♀️🧠🔬 bit.ly/3TX224Z
Tau in the field of #Alzheimers research was a very big topic at this year's AD/PD meeting last month. How it travels, how it seeds within astrocytes, and other mechanisms underlying #tau propagation were all highlighted in studies there. 🧠🔬Take a look: bit.ly/4aBwSHt

Great work! I know it’s in mice but the mechanism makes sense. I suspected this in my mother when I saw the changes after #hysterectomy painfully watching it play out over 10 years. Hope this helps others

The day after the conference #ADI2024: if we met in person, hi! Slept for 9 hrs. Got up, had breakfast, went back to sleep for 2 hrs. Meeting and talking and listening tires my weary brain, although I love it! I so enjoy the accidental incidental conversations. And drawing...
Was wondering why I couldn't get any soap out of the dispenser in the disabled toilet. It's because it's an alarm call system.
At last! Just talked to person who has explained the difference between PCA caused by damage to occipital lobe and parietal Alzheimer's with visual disturbance (my type, in need of a snappy title: not entirely sure about 'Wonky Willy Syndrome') The benefits of #ADI2024!
‘Every story matters’ & the importance the voice of lived experience, including the ‘quieter voice’ to be included in all we do. Sharing the campaign work of @NDCAN_Scotland @S_D_W_G with a key message ‘when you’ve met one person with dementia, you’ve met one person’ #ADI2024 💜
