pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38896813/ Great to see work with Jacob Simmering Aldridge Lab out in Neurology Journal. We find that glyclosis-enhancing drugs *decrease* the risk of being diagnosed with Dementia with Lewy Bodies - following up on our work with Parkinson's disease. Wild!

It was fun to write this Current Biology Dispatch with Matt Weber about the latest paper from James Hyman's group: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our forum discussing how 1-8 Hz delta/theta rhythms linked with cognitive control are decreased in Parkinson's patients with dementia and cognitive impairments is out at Trends in Cognitive Sciences pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39003229/ Key for new biomarkers and treatments. w/Rachel Clark Cole James F Cavanagh

Congrats to Julia Kryca, an Iowa undergraduate and now a post-bacc who will start medical school at Poznan University of Medical Sciences this fall

We'll miss Alexis Oppman, an oustanding post-bac research assistant who will go on to Dental School at UIowa, supported by the US Navy.

And Kartik Sivakumar has already left us after undergraduate and post-bac research with us to start his MSTP program WVU Mountaineers Kartik was profiled in the The New Yorker: newyorker.com/news/dispatch/…

Nice article by Hannah Thomasy, PhD in The Scientist about the complexities and dangers of the dopamine detox: the-scientist.com/debunking-the-… As a Parkinson's neurologist and researcher, I hope we can move past this bad idea... With @asbova9's pic of nigra dopamine neurons

Congrats to all - esp Sumin Kim - for years of hard work and partnership to advance understanding of DYT1 dystonia, TorsinA function and nuclear pore biology. @pappassa Sarah H. Shahmoradian Barmada Lab UT Southwestern O'Donnell Brain Institute Dystonia Medical Research Foundation nature.com/articles/s4155…

The time has finally arrived! Check out this amazing thread by Cameron Flayer, PhD and our manuscript that is finally live for all the details!!! I'll do my little summary, but really, this is where you'll get the whole story. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Going to SFN? Check out posters - made by Brooke Yeager, M.S.

Very proud what our nascent Center for Neurodegeneration has done here in Iowa:

Our newest paper is up on pubmed: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39701542/ We've generated a new mouse that enables manipulating of neurons expressing the D1 dopamine receptor - D1-FLP mice

Our latest work is up as a version of record on eLife: elifesciences.org/articles/96287 Thread at Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/naraya… As always, data and code are available at narayanan.lab.uiowa.edu/data

New preprint from our group showing that drugs that enhance glycolysis slow neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease - data from yeast to humans: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Data and Code: bit.ly/GlycolysisANDAD narayanan.lab.uiowa.edu/home/data

Our latest preprint: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

another new preprint from our group on predicting cognitive changes in PD from resting state fMRI: medrxiv.org/content/10.110… Led by Brooke Yeager, M.S.!
