A great collaboration Kamen, Kamen Tsvetanov - thank you. The need to separate vascular from neuronal factors in BOLD fMRI is essential to characterize neurocognitive aging, and disorders associated with ageing like Dementia. #RSFA #fMRI #Ageing MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit @camcan_tweets

Our new preprint showing that function can enable people in the presymptomatic stages of neurodegeneration to maintain cognition despite progressive atrophy that begins years before symptoms onset - joint effort w Stefano Gazzina GENFI Cambridge FTD bit.ly/37v5gDG

Our review w/ @rikhens Cambridge FTD on separating vascular-neural effects of age on fMRI signals: implications of vascular ageing on neurocognitive ageing. In 10K+ fmri ageing studies, <20 correct for vascular signals – plenty of research is still needed! bit.ly/2LCyfMw

Gradient dispersion identifies behaviorally relevant differences in brain function across the lifespan, as emerging tool to address challenges & provide opportunities in neuroimaging data in health & disease. Thanks to wondeful & inspiring collaborators & CamCAN's rich dataset.

Our review “Separating vascular and neuronal effects of age on fMRI BOLD signals” is now published! @rikhens Cambridge FTD royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Our new paper on understanding the effects of age on resting BOLD variability with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular signals is out now! @rikhens Dr Delia Fuhrmann Henk(—Jan) Mutsaerts (he/him) @clsblab @camcan_tweets Cambridge FTD MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit dx.doi.org/10.1111/psyp.1…

How do people in presymptomatic stages of neurodegeneration maintain cognition despite atrophy? Functional connectivity may be a key factor, says our new study: intervention & disease modifying treatment implications–joint w S Gazzina @cambridgeFTD GENFI bit.ly/35KjuSq

Great to see this in preprint by the brilliant Shuyi Wu, Dept of Psychology visiting student! W/ cslblab @rikhens Cambridge FTD @camcan_tweets we show that maintaining cerebral perfusion into old age may serve to support brain function with behavioural advantage bit.ly/3FfbFmC

Check out the first preprint of Dr Deborah King's PhD. Vascular ageing is multifactorial with each factor having distinct effects on cognition. w/ a great team @rikhens @rogierK @noham_wolpe Carol Brayne PA cslblab Cambridge FTD @camcan_tweets bit.ly/33IGhjg

💥📢Our new preprint shows that multiple aspects of vascular health independently effect cognition medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…. A thread:

New paper by the brilliant Shuyi Wu, Dept of Psychology visiting student, showing the importance to model, rather than simply normalise for, cerebrovascular differences in fMRI studies. For this, we developed a toolbox for commonality analysis in neuroimaging. bit.ly/3LDAqNU 1/2

New research! Vascular ageing is multifactorial with each factor having distinct effects on cognition. Led by Dr Deborah King w/ a great team @rikhens @rogierK @noham_wolpe Carol Brayne PA cslblab Cambridge FTD @camcan_tweets nature.com/articles/s4159…

🧠 Exciting News! Our latest work reveals compelling evidence for functional compensation in older adults, highlighting the remarkable resilience of ageing brains! A fantastic team effort, led by Ethan Knights, with @rikhens, Alexa Morcom @alexamorcom.bsky.social & Dan Mitchell bit.ly/3EYNSJr

Our new study shows the strongest evidence yet for brain adaptation to maintain cognition in ageing. Published in eLife - the journal bit.ly/3w75MZo Outstanding collaboration with Ethan Knights @rikhens Alexa Morcom @alexamorcom.bsky.social and Dan Mitchell
