Congratulations to Jason Hassenstab, PhD, who was installed as the Norman J. Stupp Professor of Neurology. After the ceremony, Hassenstab presented a talk titled, “Boundaries and Crossing Borders in Alzheimer’s Disease Research.” bit.ly/420mXcR

Our ability to accurately predict #Alzheimer's disease years in advance of any symptoms keeps getting better with plasma proteins and A.I. analytics Nature Aging nature.com/articles/s4358…

Great summary of the last lab manuscript. Identifying novel plasma biomarkers beyond Aβ and tau, now that therapies are targeting those proteins. Here we used large scale proteomics and A.I to identify proteins that predict AD even before clinical symptoms.

🚨Preprint Alert!!!! Fantastic manuscript from the team!! Aleksandra Beric Carlos Cruchaga We explored whole blood transcriptome and nominated some genes and early biomarkers. #Parkinson #transcriptomics Thanks to michaeljfox.org for the support! Link below👇📷👇 medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Around 5-10% of the #Alzheimers cases are early-onset, and are understudied. In a multiancestry genetic study of Early-onset AD we identified eight novel genes that point to dysregulation of glutamate, immune activation WashU Medicine Knight ADRC WashU Medicine Neurology alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/al…

The first four papers mining the GNPC proteomics dataset surfaced plasma signatures of cognitive decline and neurodegeneration, and a pro-inflammatory profile in APOE4 carriers. #alzheimers #parkinsons #FTD @wustl Stanford University University of Oxford University of Sydney ow.ly/Qnwt50WuxQR
