I am happy to share our Technical Comment just out in @ScienceTM, where we discuss the biological interpretation of 🧠 FDG-PET. Follow the 🧵for a short journey through FDG-PET biological interpretation. https://t.co/9wqIf9t6DK 👇1/11

@babalolaadekun1 The amyloid cascade hypothesis is under constant review BUT this specific paper (https://t.co/NoFvJeS6gy) isn’t intended as a critique of the amyloid cascade nor does it have the appropriate longitudinal biomarker or cognitive data to test it.

New paper in @molpsychiatry showing the very high prevalence of Aβ pathology in cognitively unimpaired elderly (78-94 years) when measured with PET and the challenge of applying in vivo staging schemes in this age group. https://t.co/NoFvJeS6gy

@UoM_Imaging You too

[Stephen F. Carter @SteCartier]

@UoM_Imaging Thanks!

[Stephen F. Carter @SteCartier]

@UoM_Imaging No problem, happily done. How about a retweet? 😉

[Stephen F. Carter @SteCartier]

All participants recruited from a longitudinal ageing study in Newcastle and Manchester which has cognitive data going back to 1988. Imaging data acquired in Manchester using @UoM_Imaging facilities. Hopefully a couple more imaging papers to follow from this data set...🤞

Thanks to first author Gosia “I don’t have a twitter account yet” Michalowska for turning her MSc dissertation into a @molpsychiatry paper and to @nicholasashton for the analysis of our blood plasma samples, which helped get the paper through review.

Humbling to listen to some of the men and women who escaped the central pens in the Leppings Lane terrace at Hillsborough. It takes unbelievable courage to open up about that day and the consequences. Please take the time to read their stories. No paywall. https://t.co/5NPoVdqg4K

@_michael_scholl Ah my bad, that bloody London and its prices! Still a really good price relative to other courses out there, plus a knight of the queendom amongst the speakers.

It was only 545 days 16.5hrs since the last time but who’s counting. Bask in the view from the £9 seat! LFC 2 - 0 BFC @ Anfield, Liverpool https://t.co/wohr8Z1n2a

Our meta-analyses evaluating #astrocyte biomarkers in #3,204 cognitively unimpaired and #alzheimer individuals (https://t.co/fZoWy3Q0qu) is the cover of the June 15th issue of the @GreenJournal 👉 https://t.co/vJ4iPjdQaY. Congratulations to @BellaverBruna and all involved. +

[Zimmer Lab @zimmerneurolab]

Our last paper is out in @GreenJournal. In this massive effort lead by @BellaverBruna we meta-analyzed data from 3,204 individuals to determine whether fluid and imaging #astrocyte biomarkers are altered in Alzheimer's disease.

It's nauseous hearing UEFA, FIFA, Premier League, Sky and politicians congratulate themselves on helping to beat greed in football when they facilitate it. The only way fans will get their game back is when they sit on boards...a column

@_michael_scholl Disappointing if the Swedish monarchy doesn’t still dish knighthoods out, you’ll have to get British citizenship and get one of ours then.
