Excited to share a new preprint from VETSA (and part 3/3 of my dissertation)! Is higher cortical thickness in Alzheimer's-related regions always protective? Our results suggest not, but cortical mean diffusivity can help identify important subgroups 🧵 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Dear Twitter friends. Please help Marie R. Vermeiren and me with completing this survey on the use of #tau #PET in clinic and trials. The results will be used in my #AAIC plenary and eventually published. Please also SHARE and/or RETWEET! alzheimercentrum.nl/the-future-rol…

I'm very excited to announce our new paper investigating genetic subtypes of Alzheimer's disease is out now in Journal of Alzheimer's Disease! This work is a central part of my K award, and it was an absolute pleasure collaborating with Aaditya Rangan and Nicholas Schork. content.iospress.com/articles/journ…

Our new paper on cognitive resilience against Alzheimer’s pathology is out now! We explore common conceptual issues (i.e., differentiating resilience vs. low risk) and identify cortical regions that confer resilience against p-tau/cortical thinning 🧠 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
