🚨🚨Our new paper is now available in @alzdemjournals where @Pamlukasewicz showed that plasma p-tau231 and p-tau217 are associated with early Aβ deposition in CU, but in CI, these plasma measurements are more closely associated with tau tangles PET.

The potential implications of a room-temperature superconductor as #LK99 for the medical imaging field are exciting to say the least. Very curious to see where this will bring us.
Where do HTS come in? First, in generating the high magnetic fields used to align protons and make them spin.
But more importantly, is in the sensitive detectors that pickup those protons emitted RF waves. SC detectors would improve the sensitivity of an MRI by 12x
Had an incredible time at #AAIC23 surrounded by brilliant minds passionate about research and science. Grateful for the amazing people I connected with and the unforgettable memories we made together! Thank you all!
Excited to share our latest McGill/Gothenurg publication on a novel assay: NTA! NTA is a tangle-specific marker in both plasma & CSF, in contrast with the current tau markers more closely associated with Aβ. Big thank you to Juan & @AnniinaSnellman for beautiful work together🩸🧠
Proud of Dr. Cecile Tissot, who had an impeccable performance on her thesis viva. It was a real celebration of her contribution to the field. Tomorrow she will be heading to ADPD - Goteborg as Dr. Tissot!
If you are attending the #HAI2023 be sure to check out @StijnServaes's poster presentation #101 "Amyloid drives later tau accumulation for fast progressors in early Braak stages" on Firday, January 13th @HAIconference
🎉Congratulations to @JosephTherr and @vermeiren_marie🎉on their fantastic work released in @JAMANeuro "Association of Phosphorylated Tau Biomarkers With Amyloid Positron Emission Tomography vs Tau Positron Emission Tomography"

The board-game playing AI AlphaZero from @DeepMind discovered a faster way perform matrix multiplication, beating a record that has stood for more than 50 years

Positive trial results for Lecanemab! We need to see all the details and uncertain if/when this may reach patients, but a very exciting day for everyone living with and researching dementia
With its focus on post-diagnostic care 🤝, the World Alzheimer Report 2022 is a direct follow-up on the previous edition that focused on the diagnosis itself 🎯.
So proud to have been able to contribute to this as a co-author!

Great summary from @alzforum, which highlighted our work at @MCSA_Montreal, where we investigated the impact of having different CSF p-tau isoforms by coupling this to both amyloid and tau-PET.

So proud to be part of this fantastic group of passionate researchers. #AAIC22 was a great opportunity to show what this group has accomplished under the guidance of @pedrorosaneto@MCSA_Montreal
