So excited to work on this project with my collaborators Sally Temple, Taylor Bertucci, @PumigliaLab, and @RamonBossardi ! Thank you to @NIH_NINDS for supporting our work!
@AlbanyMed @NeuralStemCells
With support from a $4M grant, @Zuloaga_lab is leading a new study into how #menopause impacts #AlzheimersDisease, and if an estrogen therapy that targets the brain could help protect against #dementia. #AlzheimersAwarenessMonth albanymed.org/news/4m-nih-gr…

Thank you so much to @CBS6Lara for featuring our lab’s research on the local news this week! The interview was so fun! 👇
WELLNESS WATCH: Researchers at Albany Med are considering whether there's a connection between dementia and menopause. They believe it could explain why so many more women are diagnosed with Alzheimer's and dementia than men. @CBS6Albany

Excited to share our work, new in @ScienceMagazine: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…. We explored how sex chromosomes, gonadal hormones, and their interaction shape cellular responses in aging and #Alzheimers mouse models. This led to key insights on Tlr7 and neurodegeneration 🧵(1/5)
