Our team has written a summary of research into the use of energy from the brain’s support cells, astrocytes, in those living with dementia.

Had an amazing time at the #AAICAdvancements conference in Tokyo. Thank you to the organisers and all the speakers for a thought provoking and excellent event. @alzassociation
Extremely proud and honoured to have had the opportunity to work with @HeatherMortiboy, @NeuroSimon and everyone else on this exciting new publication! Well done to all involved 😀

Super excited to share the latest paper from @MortiboysLab@NeuroSimon We show metabolic abnormalities in astrocytes from Alzheimer's patients which is rescued with hexokinase 1. Am amazing team effort and I am so happy this exciting work is now out

We're kicking off #AAICAdvancements: Modernizing Diagnosis in Tokyo, Japan right now! Researchers are gathering to share & advance evolving global perspectives on the diagnosis, detection & monitoring of Alzheimer's disease. Follow #ADdx24 & read more: https://t.co/AYlbdoRiBM.
Yesterday, some of our members presented their research findings to the general public at the Dementia Futures conference.
Read more about presentations from our PhD students, postdoctoral researchers and senior researchers.

Had a great time today presenting my work and watching fellow speakers at the dementia futures conference 🧠 It was really inspiring speaking to members of the public / people living with dementia about the current field of work @ARUKYorkshire@ARUKscientist
Well done to @emmafgarland and @hollie_wareing for presenting their work at the dementia futures conference today! Extra well done to @emmafgarland for winning the prize for best presentation 🧬🥼
Well done to our @emmafgarland for attending Bedford Acadey Secondary School for their STEM fest week to talk about what it’s like to be a neuroscientist 🧠 #STEM
Research from @sheffielduni & the UK DRI at Cambridge reveals new insight into how a protein known as apolipoprotein E (APOE) interacts with amyloid-beta, and how this interaction affects the likelihood of developing Alzheimer's👉https://t.co/qQ3LikpSAB
As part of scientists’ efforts to find treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease, they have been investigating the build-up of fat droplets, and their toxicity, in certain brain cells in those diagnosed.

New lab paper alert 🚨 Published in @NatureComms:
“Co-aggregation with Apolipoprotein E modulates the function of Amyloid-β in Alzheimer’s disease”

Great work to everyone involved!
Excited to share a new publication which I had the opportunity to work on:
https://t.co/l0NvhSRcu8
This is my first published paper listed as an author and an important milestone in my career as an ECR.
Great work from everyone involved!
