Lifebrain

Our latest @CORDIS_EU research has hit the headlines in Norway. “9 of 10 want to know their brain disease risk”. Thank you @HorizonEU for funding this work! @EUhorizon2020 lifebrain.uio.no/news/testing.h…

Our latest findings from the @LifebrainEU Global Brain Health Survey show high public interest in brain health testing: frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

New article by Lars Nyberg et al. in Cerebral Cortex on work from the Lifebrain project, “Individual differences in brain aging: heterogeneity in cortico-hippocampal but not caudate atrophy rates”. bit.ly/3T7M5rf @LifebrainEU @UmeaUniversity @umeauniversitet

We are excited to announce that the data from the Lifebrain Global Brain Health Survey has now been made available online. We know many partners and stakeholders have been eager to get a hold of this data.

Proud of this massive effort in the @LifebrainEU consortium led by Julia Binnewies 🧠: A meta-analysis in >3000 participants showing #depression symptoms relate to (slightly) smaller regional #brain volume 👉doi.org/10.1016/j.nicl… @PsychRes

Would you rather be smart or educated? We see that smart people show less brain change in aging, regardless of education and polygenic scores. 7000 longitudinal MRIs. Great work by @KWalhovd and the @LifebrainEU & @LCBC_UiO teams nature.com/articles/s4159…

✌️New ⁦exciting paper lead by ⁦@KWalhovd⁩ ⁦@AndersFjell⁩ and all ⁦@LifebrainEU⁩ consortia colleagues 👏👏👏 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35974034/?utm_…

Thanks to all our stakeholders for helping us achieve our impact! @hjerneradet @camcan_tweets @BelBrainCouncil @hersenstichting @Hjarnfonden @womensbrainpro @oaedu @beatdementia &German Brain Council lifebrain.uio.no/news/stakehold…

Sharing valuable knowledge on brain imaging data at the Lifebrain closing conference in Oxford with ⁦@OxfordWIN⁩ ⁦@OxPsychiatry ⁦@VidalDidac⁩

You can now read about the key findings of @LifebrainEU in this short summary! buff.ly/39EXpcR

Definitely potential for improving accuracy in detecting longitudinal structural brain change. Great job Donatas Sederevicius! @LCBC_UiO @LifebrainEU

Our closing conference is free for the public and relevant for anyone interested in brain health:

“The brain is like a muscle - if you train it, you make it fitter,” says @LifebrainEU researcher Christian Drevon @CADrevon in a recent interview:

Remember to sign up for Your brain - for life! Closing conference for the Lifebrain consortium, in Oxford 29th June lifebrain.uio.no/events/oxford_… - deadline tomorrow! @OxPsychiatry

Hot off the press: 2x10 weeks memory training in 157 participants yielded improved memory for 3 yrs. In contrast, hippo volume increased during training, but did not differ from controls after 3 yrs. Great work @AnneCecilie17 @LCBC_UiO @LifebrainEU nature.com/articles/s4159…

Post doc position in machine learning on our cross-disciplinary project Societal and environmental determinants of brain and cognition. Excellent opportunity for the right candidate, please spread the word. @LCBC_UiO @LifebrainEU @UiO_LifeSci . jobbnorge.no/en/available-j…

Proud to say my second PhD paper is out today in @NatureComms! doi.org/10.1038/s41467… Forever thankful to all who made it possible @LCBC_UiO @RenWesterhause1 @VidalDidac @LifebrainEU (1/8) 👇

Our latest findings from the Global Brain Health Survey: Most people know lifestyle and mental health are linked to #brainhealth- women are more aware than men:lifebrain.uio.no/publications/e… @LCBC_UiO @Psykologiskinst

What do people know about #brainhealth? In the largest survey ever done to investigate public perceptions of brain health, researchers found that the awareness level varies. bmjopen.bmj.com/content/12/4/e… @LifebrainEU @LCBC_UiO @Psykologiskinst @folkehelseinst @CORDIS_EU

Are you willing to make lifestyle changes in order to reduce the risk of brain disease? sciencenorway.no/brain/what-are… @LifebrainEU #brainhealth #brain #lifestyle @Folkehelseinst
