Incredible night raising awareness & support for Alzheimer’s research — including breakthroughs in data sharing & access via @GAAIN @USC. Big thanks to Daryl & Irwin Simon + the #ForkIt crew for your passion & vision to drive progress. 💜 #ENDALZ

Is it your first time (or even your 10th time) giving a talk at a big conference like #AAIC25? Timing is important for your confidence, and out of respect for the audiovisual team, your co-chairs, and hybrid audience. 10-minute presentation tips: Sketch out 10 slides on paper…

Understanding the biology of changes in Alzheimer's is key to advancing therapies & tools for early diagnosis.  Research by @alzassociation #ALZFunded fellow @YifeiCai_ explores myelin–axon interface vulnerability. #AlzResearch #ENDALZ nature.com/articles/s4159…

Day 1 of @HAIconference (HAI) is off to a moving start. With our experimental year outside of Miami, @DrMariaALZ leads us with a message of hope. As HAI is a #biomarker and #neuropathology community of hope translating into clinical application 💜

It’s another big day for everyone touched by Alzheimer’s or another dementia. BOLD has been essential to growing our public health infrastructure for dementia. Now, we'll be able to build on this progress and expand the law’s impact. Congrats, advocates! #BOLDAlzheimersAct

Abstract submissions for #AAICAdvancements: APOE & Lipid Biology, and #Tau2025 close Dec. 6 for ISTAART members! Share your work on APOE’s role in neurodegeneration or tauopathies like PSP, CBD & FTD. Don’t miss out on these two meetings—Submit now! alz.org/scientificmeet…

How can dementia research be inclusive and impactful to all communities? Researchers explored this in “Public and Participant Involvement as a Pathway to Inclusive Research” published in @alzassociation's Alzheimer's & Dementia Journal. alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/al…

Submit your research or review papers that highlight the impact of @NACCData and the #NIAfundedADRC program have had on advancing #AlzheimersDisease translation and discovery. Check out the list below of topics of interest for submissions. bit.ly/AD_Special_Iss…

Are you at #GSA2024? Visit our Booth 303 to learn how care leaders, professional care providers, and researchers can share best practices, build and strengthen partnerships and implement the latest approaches in evidence-based, person-centered dementia care.

Applications are open for the @alzassociation Interdisciplinary Summer Research Institute. Don't miss this no-cost opportunity for early career researchers in psychosocial care & public health to learn more about dementia science. Applications due 3/9. alz.org/summerinstitute

Make sure to join us for AAIC advancement: APOE & Lipid Biology. There's going to be some great new insights into everything APOE! Abstract submission deadline is Dec 2. alz.org/apoe/overview.…

If you’re looking for a podcast episode to check out, here’s one to consider. I talked to @USATODAY 's The Excerpt about the impact of Alzheimer’s and dementia on people, families, and communities, and discussed some of the innovations that could be ahead. bit.ly/40H7azl

Join us at #AAICAdvancements Exploring Equity in Diagnosis, Nov. 18-19 in Chicago and online! Be a part of the conversation around addressing disparities in an era of modernizing diagnosis for Alzheimer’s and other dementias. #ExploringEquity24 alz.org/exploringequity

There is still time to submit your abstracts for Neuroscience Next! Please join us at the @IUMedSchool @IUStark_Neuro hub! 😁

SAVE THE DATE: AAIC Satellite Symposium in Lima, Peru. May 14-15, 2025. See you there 😃

The Biobank for Aging Studies is pleased to announce the launch of the LMIC Brain Bank Mentorship Program, a unique initiative to support researchers from low- and middle-income countries in establishing brain banks in their home countries! Apply now: bit.ly/3zSMvgv

Stop by and say hello! @ISTAART @DrMariaALZ @claire_e_sexton @stforner

I am so excited to be part of planning what will undoubtedly be an amazing meeting with a line-up of passionate, brilliant scientists. Please register and share - we'd love to see you in Chicago or online!
