Alterations in brain blood volume induced by changes in neuronal activity "pump" cerebrospinal fluid into and out of the brain. Excited to share my first project on human MRI. Collaboration with many great people including Christian Sorg and @NMRMgroup. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Fantastic presentation from Felix at #ADPD2025 today. congratulations!
Really interesting presentation from Felix Unger from the @BZottlab on soluble TREM2 at the #ADPD2025 meeting. Great job - fascinating data!
First #WednesdayCoffeeTalk of the year: @BZottlab on “Neuronal dysfunctions in #Alzheimer’s disease – mechanisms and implications for #therapy” Wednesday at 1 p.m. on Zoom - DM us for access info! More info: tum.de/en/news-and-ev…
Using tau and Aβ PET and MEG in older adults reveals that Aβ depositions colocalize with faster neurophysiological activity. In those also presenting tau pathology, slowed neurophysiological activity was seen, which was linked to cognitive decline nature.com/articles/s4159…
Albrecht Struppler Clinician Scientist Fellow @BZottlab featured on @BR24: Hopeful news in #Alzheimer's research. br.de/nachrichten/wi…
A new study shows a promising therapeutic approach to halting the progression of #Alzheimer's in its early stages. The team developed a #protein drug that can suppress the effects of the harmful amyloid beta #biomolecule: go.tum.de/125293 @SyNergy_Cluster 📷A.Heddergott
Finally out! Scavenging of #Abeta monomers can restore neuronal activity and synaptic function in early #Alzheimers by preventing the formation of toxic oligomers. Great collaboration with Arne Skerra, @CGrienberger and @marcaurelbusche nature.com/articles/s4146…

🚨Pls RT🚨 We are hiring! My lab @BrandeisNeuro has an opening for a Research Tech. It is an ideal position for a recent college grad who is passionate about uncovering how the brain learns within a young and collaborative team. More info at grienbergerlab.org or DM me asap
🚨This is now published @Nature 🥳 Might be worth a read if you are interested in behaviorally relevant plasticity mechanisms in the brain. Feedback welcome! nature.com/articles/s4158…
🚨my latest work is now out on @biorxiv_neursci.We discovered a new function for the #entorhinalcortex,to provide an instructive signal to CA1.This signal directs learning-related changes in CA1 activity by driving behavioral timescale synaptic plasticity. Comments welcome!
Fiber photometry is a great technique. Given its infancy, there are not established methods for running the experiments. One issue is how to pick excitation powers for LEDs. Here, I am sharing some thoughts in my latest blog. blog.mohebial.com/led-power-tuni…
Happy to collaborate in this exciting project. Pioglitazone improves cognition but surprisingly boosts plaque load in Alzheimer's.

Resting-state BOLD functional connectivity depends on the heterogeneity of capillary transit times. Happy to be part of this exciting work by @NMRMgroup.
