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.

MODEL-AD is probably one of the most important initiatives to advance Alzheimer’s research The National Institute on Aging (NIA) has developed. The tools developed are rapidly available to researchers around the world.

Fresh preprint and collab w/ @LJohnsonLab : bit.ly/ApoE4Astros APOE, Astrocytes, Immunometabolism, and multi-omics: ApoE4 drives dysfunctional astrocyte response to inflammatory challenge and these responses can be recovered pharmacologically by targeting cREL. @ApoEdscvr

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.…
