Extracellular vesicles may ferry tau oligomers between cells in #alzheimersdisease brain, accelerating the spread of pathology. @BU_Tweets https://t.co/rWMbVeXT3m
An increase in Alzheimer’s research funding at the NIH and funding avenues like our #PartTheCloud initiative, founded by Michaela “Mikey” Hoag, has helped move more potential Alzheimer’s drugs down the pipeline & expanded the scope of research. https://t.co/meylI8gpRW #ENDALZ
taking a note from @WashUGlia - today our Molecular Neuroscience class discussed two papers on the same topic, 20 years apart, with similar but improved techniques in the latter.
For those who love astrocytes and synaptogenesis - these two are must reads!

Full disclosure for the grad students struggling out there.
I was in lab for 15h yesterday. And my experiments didn't work. I've done this assay over 1000 times. And it didn't work. It happens sometimes.
Looking at my lab notes today to work out what went wrong.
Hang in there.
Sex differences in risk of Alzheimer's disease in adults with Down syndrome. https://t.co/VfmtlYvOaN #downsyndrome#feedly - not quite what I expected - very interesting! @alemartiniale
Horsager et al. present evidence for the existence of two subtypes of Parkinson's disease: 'brain-first', which starts in the brain and propagates downwards, and 'body-first', which originates in the ANS of the gut and spreads to the brain. https://t.co/5VegoueEe6
Please RT! We are looking for a postdoctoral research scholar to work on glial cell dysfunction in neurodegeneration. Experience in working with animals is highly desired with passion and the ability to solve problems independently. #postdocs#ScienceJobs#AcademicChatter /1
Two years ago, planetary scientists reported the discovery of a large saltwater lake under the ice at Mars’s south pole. Now, researchers say they’ve confirmed the presence of that lake and found three more. https://t.co/BdjDVzNpOD
Dementia is not an inevitable part of ageing, it is caused by diseases, most commonly Alzheimer’s. So, this #WorldAlzheimersDay is about hope. Hope that research will find a breakthrough. Please watch and #ShareTheOrange - https://t.co/VUyc606Yhs
