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)

Thrilled to see this work out. More stories on angiogenesis coming in the future!
Congrats to the very talented co-first authors @AbelTorresEspi2 and @HLRadabaugh and all co-authors! #aging #vcid sex diff in vascular aging and implications for brain aging
NEW STUDY, led by @IcahnMountSinai's @FannyElahi, reveals sex differences in human vascular aging linked to brain degeneration & cognitive impairment👉IDs specific blood markers to predict cognitive decline & vary significantly btwn men & women @ScienceTM science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…
Thank you so much to @American_Heart for funding PhD student Emily Groom’s fellowship!! 🎉
So proud! Her project focuses on effects of adolescent stress on vascular contributions to ADRD
Thx to our collaborators @zuloagalab @GabbyFredman @PumigliaLab!

Another labour of love from the Galea lab - this time on why examining *across* & *within*-sex factors matter to propel research into effective treatments for psychiatric & neurodegenerative disease written w @bonniee_leee @nifti12 @eid_rand Travis Hodges rdcu.be/d1oh7
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!

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…
I had such a wonderful two days @Tulane, thank you so much to @AJPRenalEIC and @jillmdaniel for the invitation!
Great seminar by @Zuloaga_Lab sponsored by @TulaneBrain and @TulaneMedicine Dept of Physiology.

Happy Halloween!!
Our annual tradition of reverse trick-or-treating (handing out candy) was super fun! 💀👻🎃

Thank you @RepPaulTonko for your visit to @AlbanyMed and for being a such a strong advocate for scientific research in New York State! We were thrilled that you got to hear about some of our collaborative work with @Zuloaga_Lab @MacNamaraLab @barrosolab.
This was so fun! Thank you @GabbyFredman for organizing! 👇
We recently welcomed @RepPaulTonko for a discussion with @GabbyFredman, @barrosolab, @MacNamaraLab, and @Zuloaga_Lab about their collaborative research on aging, followed by a tour of the Fredman lab.
