Please watch my beautiful animation about #microglia and #Alzheimers! Many thanks to @OxfordSparks for producing it, and thanks to Alan Titchmarsh for volunteering to do the VO, with @clearcutsound recording.

How can we better understand the impact of genetics on Alzheimer's risk? We spoke to @HazelLRoberts about her role in IPMAR, a major UK DRI initiative that established 100 stem cell lines, capturing the effects of Alzheimer's risk genes👉buff.ly/xDH8PnT
