Hemispheric asymmetry of tau pathology is related to asymmetric amyloid deposition in Alzheimer’s Disease - Nature Communications Asymmetrical distribution of tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease is linked to asymmetrical amyloid-beta deposition, not reduced brain connectivity, suggesting regional vulnerability plays a key role ...

🚨New paper alert! Our study led by @teanijarv.bsky.social
investigated why some individuals with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) develop hemispheric asymmetry in tau pathology and what drives this phenomenon.
Out now in Nature Communications! 🔗Full article: doi.org/10.1038/s414...

🧠✨How do we rebuild our memories? In our new study, we show that hippocampal ripples kickstart a coordinated expansion of cortical activity that helps reconstruct past experiences.

We recorded iEEG from patients during memory retrieval... and found something really cool 👇(thread)

Optimal dietary patterns for healthy aging - Nature Medicine In two longitudinal cohorts followed for 30 years, the associations of eight different dietary patterns with healthy aging—encompassing cognitive, physical and mental health—were studied, identifying food constituents linked to greater or lesser odds of healthy aging.

Eating a diet high in specific types of nutrients — including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, unsaturated fats, nuts, legumes, and low-fat dairy products — is associated with improved physical and mental health in older age, according to a study in Nature Medicine. #medsky 🧪

Check out our recent pre-print looking at resting-state EEG individual alpha peak frequency and aperiodic exponent and memory performance across episodic memory, working memory and visual short/term memory tasks in a sample of healthy older adults 🧠👵🏻

<em>Psychophysiology</em> | SPR Journal | Wiley Online Library In this study, we demonstrate novel associations among EEG aperiodic slope, the temperament domains of orienting/regulation and surgency, and maternal anxiety/depressive symptoms in infancy. The resu...

New research out in Psychophysiology (doi.org/10.1111/psyp...). The EEG aperiodic slope, thought to reflect cortical excitatory/inhibitory balance, was linked to temperament traits (surgency, regulation) in infancy and moderated associations between maternal anxiety/depression and infant regulation.
