Huge thanks to @HBAProgram_USYD @BrainMind_Usyd, @CPC_usyd @UsydPsych @Sydney_Science & to so many collaborators, supporters incl. @ADNeT_Australia @DementiaAus @APS_CCN_PD @profsimonlewis @SIESTASynergy @RalphNMartins1 @leefay_low @Sydney_Uni
This is the most comprehensive review on Alzheimer’s and inflammation I’ve read in a long time. Highly recommended for anyone interested in learning about AD research or future therapeutic possibilities in AD. nature.com/articles/s4157…
Thrilled to share my first first-author paper investigating effects of C-reactive protein on neuropsychological functioning in early cognitive decline. Thank you to my supervisors @Prof_Naismith, Johannes Michaelian, @ShawnKong11 and all co-authors! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Big congrats to our PhD student @RachaelYu23 on her first paper! 🎉 Exploring hs-CRP as a marker of inflammation in SCD & MCI—a key step in understanding dementia risk. Check it out! 👇 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Very proud of our HDR scholar @RachaelYu23 - first paper examining markers of inflammation in SCD & MCI.. specifically high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. Check it out sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @HBAProgram_USYD @UsydPsych @BrainMind_Usyd @CPC_usyd
As this year wraps up, I feel grateful for my wonderful @HBAProgram_USYD team! With a multidisciplinary mix of clinicians, researchers, ECRs & students, our team is championing so many science & translational initiatives for ultimate impact. 🙏
Hugest congrats to @HBAProgram_USYD’s #JohannesMichaelian for receiving @BrainMind_Usyd research excellence and impact award! What an honour! 🥂
Over the weekend, our team members @SimoneSimonet11 and @RachaelYu23 attended the HealthEd Medical Update at the ICC! With over 1000 GPs present, they had a fantastic time sharing the services of the Healthy Brain Ageing Clinic and learning about the latest medical updates 🧠🙌🏼
Big shoutout to our incredible HBA team presenting today at USYD Sleep-Circadian Group! Excited to be part of such a diverse program filled with fresh ideas on sleep-wake rhythms. Let’s keep pushing the boundaries of research! 💤 #SleepScience #ageingResearch #Teamwork
Very proud of @HBAProgram_USYD team for stellar presentations on sleep-wake rhythms at USYD sleep-circadian group today! Diverse program with lots of new ideas! @ShawnKong11 @RachaelYu23 @ShawnKong11 @SleepyAaronLam @GabWainstein @jmacshine @Nicoleez91 @SIESTASynergy
Had a great time at New York University presenting my work to the team at the NYU Alzheimer’s Disease Research Centre - with a stunning view🏙️🗽


What an incredible week at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in Philadelphia, USA🇺🇸. Truly a privilege to hear of the research being done all over the world to #ENDALZ. Very promising things are happening in dementia science! #AAIC24 @alzassociation @ISTAART


@HBAProgram_USYD team rockin it! Franklin Institute, Philadelphia #AAIC24 @Nicoleez91 @zoemschrire @RachaelYu23 @ShawnKong11 @SIESTASynergy @BrainMind_Usyd
Always terrific to see the AAIC banner! This year in the historic Philadelphia- looking forward to a great program & PIA day tomorrow! @ISTAART Come join us at 130pm @SleepPIA @SIESTASynergy @HBAProgram_USYD @zoemschrire @RachaelYu23 @ShawnKong11 @Nicoleez91
So exciting to be given a tour around Asia's largest brain imaging facility located in Fudan University 🇨🇳🩻🧠 #BISA2024


Very honoured to present my research at Fudan University in Shanghai this week for #BISA2024 🇨🇳 It was an incredible experience to speak among esteemed international scholars in the fields of neuroscience and artificial intelligence.




Thrilled to have been given the opportunity to share my research on blood-based inflammatory proteins at the Australian Dementia Research Forum in the Gold Coast 🧠🔬 So incredibly inspiring to learn from leading experts and clinicians in the field! #ADRF2024 🇦🇺
