In appreciation of #postdocappreciationweek I present the amazing Lorena Sordo Lorena Sordo who is studying leptin resistance in people with Down syndrome. She also loves cats. All the cats.


The Norris Lab at UKY at UK Sanders-Brown Center on Aging presented their work today on vascular and astrocyte contributions to cognitive impairment and dementia at SfN #SfN2022

The impact of one person! Each of our treasured partners in our clinic provide our researchers with opportunities to find new treatments for healthy brain aging AlzKYIN University of Kentucky College of Medicine UK Research AARP Kentucky #neuroscience


Wanna join a highly collaborative group to study the neurovascular unit in Alzheimer's disease? We're still hiring #postdoc researchers for our #NIA funded P01 project on reactive astrocytes. If interested, email [email protected]! UK Sanders-Brown Center on Aging UK Research UKY Neuroscience




Great collaborative work on reactive astrocytes with our friends from @UKSBCOA Dr. Donna Wilcock jneurosci.org/content/early/…

Congratulations UKY Neuroscience faculty Dr. Adam Bachstetter Adam Bachstetter and Dr. Marilyn Duncan!

Astrocytes are where it's at! Check out the cool new J Neurosci cover art from our labs! Congrats to Bob Sompol Bob Sompol on the great pic! jneurosci.org/content/43/10.…

Super pumped to get the 10x Genomics CytAssist up and running today to expand our spatial ‘omics capabilities in FFPE samples from our world-class Neuropath group here UK Sanders-Brown Center on Aging



Please RT this amazing opportunity for undergraduate fellowships for students underrepresented in neurosciences! Dr.KaczorowskiLab UMichNeurosciences is fortunate to be selected as a sponsoring lab and we look forward to working with our future mentees!

Questions about Alzheimer’s & Dementia Alzheimer's & Dementia Journals? Attending AD/PD - Advances in Science & Therapy? Come meet me 11-12 at booth tomorrow (Thursday) to chat!

The image captured by Pradoldej “Bob” Sompol Bob Sompol shows astrocytes surrounding a blood vessel in the brain of a mouse model from their study. Landing the cover image on a high-impact journal is a first for Sompol & the rest of the team UK Sanders-Brown Center on Aging uknow.uky.edu/research/sande…

“A lot of people who have dementia do not have Alzheimer’s disease.” That is a statement that guides researchers at the University of Kentucky’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging as they aim to better define other causes of dementia. UK Sanders-Brown Center on Aging uknow.uky.edu/research/uk-re…

New in #JNeurosci: aging dogs experience neuron death & brain atrophy, which underlie memory & thinking issues. @jessnoche Dr. Elizabeth Head @NorrisLab_SBCoA et al. show that social & cognitive enrichment may improve these outcomes. Jneurosci.org/lookup/DOI/10.…


Research that transforms brain health is the goal of UK’s Sanders-Brown Center on Aging. Center Director, 𝐃𝐫. 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐚 𝐕𝐚𝐧 𝐄𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐤 explains how NIH funding is crucial to advancing this important work. youtube.com/shorts/2fIYajG… #researchforeverymind University of Kentucky College of Medicine
