In this new opinion piece led by Matthew Rouse, we review predictions of the #SocialSemantics framework (Binney &Ramsey, 2020; Lambon Ralph et al.,2017) and it’s potential to account for social impairment in #FTD. Out now in Brain academic.oup.com/brain/advance-…

Multi-method convergent evidence, supported by a robust framework, probing the exact role of the anterior temporal lobes in semantics supporting face recognition. Preprint led by social semantics superstar Matthew Rouse! MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit

Very excited to have our review article on social behaviour in #FTD published in Brain! 🧠

Fantastic opportunity to work at the intersection of neuroscience and AI!

Pleased to share our new preprint 📢 We investigate social semantic knowledge in #FTD and after unilateral anterior temporal lobe resection, using detailed neuropsychology and structural MRI. 🧠 Ajay Halai Siddharth Ramanan, PhD Cambridge FTD MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Fantastic piece of work by the talented Matthew Rouse! Differential social-semantic impairments in frontotemporal dementia and unilateral temporal lobe epilepsy, as revealed by testing on a shared battery, showing unique contributions of each/both anterior temporal lobes 🧠

New paper: A neuroanatomical and cognitive model of impaired social behaviour in frontotemporal dementia: doi.org/10.1093/brain/…

The staggering costs of visa inequality🚨 In 2023 rejected EU visas cost the world’s poorest €100M +, 💰 flowing from poor to rich countries, like a 'reverse remittance'. Yet we never hear about this🤨 I talked to EUobserver based on latest LAGO analysis euobserver.com/eu-and-the-wor…

Science is a whole lot of patience! Ten years and a few months shy of my first publication, I'm pleased to start the week with this achievement - 1,000 citations 😊 ✨🎉 I'm thankful to all my collaborators for the exciting work that we've authored together!

Pleased to see our latest paper in Brain decoding the evolving graded clinical profiles of Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia phenotypes picked up by Nature Reviews Neurology Nat Rev Neurology! Thread to come soon!

A new study by Matt Rouse (Matthew Rouse) and colleagues uses neuropsychology and neuroimaging to reveal the core cognitive function of the anterior temporal lobes in face recognition, person knowledge and semantic memory. #FTD doi.org/10.1093/cercor…

In case you were also away when Siddharth Ramanan, PhD MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit published Brain UMAP geometries of paradigmatic and mixed/intermediate phenotypes of dementias Tracking individual trajectories, links to pathology and survival 114 AD, 107 bvFTD, 42 PSP/CBS, 103 PPA academic.oup.com/brain/advance-…

Fantastic work by the brilliant Siddharth Ramanan, PhD!

Our new preprint is out 🤓🧠 we systematically explore the range and nature of changed behaviours across the FTD clinical spectrum (bvftd and semantic dementia) and their association with changes in cognition and brain volume #ftd MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit Masud Husain Cambridge FTD

Ramanan et al. examine the evolution of clinical phenotypes in patients diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or FTLD, and show that behavioural and cognitive profiles of individuals with the same initial diagnosis can converge or diverge over time. tinyurl.com/4c6ymf2x

An absolutely wonderful paper and project from a stellar scientist! Impaired semantic control in lvPPA can go as far as explaining difficulties in using everyday objects #endftd

Rouse et al. report that social- and non-social semantic memory are degraded in frontotemporal dementia following bilateral anterior temporal lobe atrophy. Read at: buff.ly/3BKsOsr Matthew Rouse Ajay Halai Siddharth Ramanan, PhD Peter Garrard Cambridge FTD MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit

Now in Brain, we answer when AND why some pts with clinical AD/FTLD - diverge to start looking different from their initial dx - converge to start resembling the other grp & broad, transdiagnostic mechanistic and pathological bases of dynamic, longitudinal clinical evolution
