Current projections estimate 153 million people will be living with dementia by 2050.

Nearly half of dementia cases could be prevented or delayed by tackling 14 risk factors starting in childhood, suggests new report from a standing Lancet Commission: https://t.co/ZFRBBbIfdZ

Ever had a bad gut feeling ? Maybe there was something to it! In our new study, led by the brillant @leahbanellis & @BrainAndStomach, we combined fMRI & electrogastrographic imaging in 200+ participants to uncover hidden links between the gastric-brain axis & mental health symptoms. https://t.co/NxW80UBSU9
