Really happy that the final paper of my PhD is out now!
It was great to work on this project with Dave Wolk (@picslupenn.bsky.social) & @lemwisse.bsky.social and all others involved!

So excited to attend #AAIC25 in person again this year! Looking forward to a week of exciting science to #ENDALZ.
Very proud of my trainees who will be presenting their work - don't forget to tune in!
This is your quarterly reminder that the hippocampus is a cortical (not subcortical) structure! Nicola Palomero-Gallagher underscored this point during our #OHBM2025 educational course!

Very proud of @anikawuestefeld.bsky.social for finishing her PhD thesis on the medial temporal lobe in aging and dementia! Following Swedish tradition, the thesis is now nailed to the wall.... last step before the defense next week. I have no doubt she will nail this too!

Why academia is sleepwalking into self-destruction. My editorial @brain1878.bsky.social If you agree with the sentiments please repost. It's important for all our sakes to stop the madness

If judge donβt stop, NIH employees review new/ongoing projects:
Cat 1: solely support DEI activities. CUT
Cat 2: partially support. Renegotiate or CUT
Cat 3: donβt support but some DEI language. Cont./cut language in app/progress reports.
Cat 4: donβt support any. Cont & DEI not in reports.
Excited that is also available in new version of ASHS including not only anterior MTL cortical regions but also the amygdala!

The amygdala protocol developed by @anikawuestefeld.bsky.social is described in the supplements of alzres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
Beautiful work by Niyousha Sadeghpour developing a manual segmentation protocol for the anterior MTL cortex, important in AD and LATE! Grounded in a large set of annotated histology sections and postmortem MRI scans, labelled by the late Ricardo Insausti & his team.

Saddened by the news of Ricardo Insausti passing away. I had the privilege of collaborating with him for almost a decade and learned a tremendous amount from him. He was a world-leading expert on MTL anatomy, a wonderful mentor and person. I will miss him dearly.
