Many thanks to our #JHWalkTeam2023 & more than 50 donors who raised $3,850 for Alzheimer's Association Alzheimer's Assoc MD at the #Baltimore #Walk2EndAlz last Sat.! Tax-deductible donations accepted through Dec.: tinyurl.com/JHWalkTeam2023 FYI Hopkins Med News Johns Hopkins Medicine Johns Hopkins Department of Medicine

📣 12/9 from 8am to 2:30pm Alzheimer's Assoc MD has an amazing lineup of presentations and speakers for the 19th Annual Pythias A. And Virginia I. Jones #AfricanAmerican Community Forum on #Memory Loss. Learn more/register here: communityresourcefinder.org/ResourceView/I… #Dementia #Alzheimers #Aging

We continue to accept applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to study longitudinal #speech #language in #Alzheimers and related #dementia using imaging, CSF, and plasma biomarkers of #ADRD. Start date is flexible; we offer a supportive learning environment that values DEIAB.

We're hiring a postdoc! Includes opportunities to work on multiple projects related to cognitive aging and ADRD, including Precision Aging Network, the #BIOCARDStudy, and the ADRC's Memory & Aging Study. Please share; for more info: neurojobs.sfn.org/job/37403/post…

Call for papers to a Scientific Reports collection addressing Mental Health and Illness in Aging! Looking forward to being a guest editor for this collection. Please RT & take a look: nature.com/collections/cj…

The Johns Hopkins Alzheimer’s Disease Resource Center for Minority Aging Research (JHAD-RCMAR) announces the 2023-2024 call for pilot proposals. Applications are due February 1, 2024. For more information, please email [email protected].

🎉🌺 Feliz Día de las Madres! PAN recognizes the vital role mothers play in caring for the family's health and well-being. 💖 To all the mamas - your love nurtures the world, and today, we honor you! 💐

Today’s #BIOCARDStudy #AAIC24 posters highlight longitudinal plasma biomarker data - come discuss! Pettigrew’s on changes over time by AD genetic risk & follow-up diagnosis (poster 347); Soldan’s on relationship to MCI symptom onset (poster 365).

A fourth #BIOCARDStudy #AAIC24 poster looks at associations btwn cognitive profiles and multimodal brain imaging measures among non-demented older adults (Alice Hahn, poster 565)!

So many #BIOCARDStudy #AAIC24 posters today! @2DanielCallow4 (poster 756) looks at associations of #sleep and physical activity with cognition and resting state measures of network connectivity & segmentation, including differences by amyloid status.
