I am featured in this article commenting on how #ApoE4 genotype status and sex seem to impact the benefit and risk of #Leqembi treatment. The future of treating #Alzheimers disease is developing a personalized medicine approach to care - incorporating factors like sex, genetics, and more, into one’s treatment regimen. Anti-amyloid antibody drugs are a start to this future becoming a reality. While they are certainly not a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, they can be thought of as an important addition to a tool belt, that will hopefully one day be full of a number of different drugs, that will work in tandem, in unique combinations, to fight Alzheimer’s disease. A one size fits all approach can and should not be the goal. Great explanatory article by @AmandaKrupa !

📢 And our final kudos to @bdemiranda, 2023 Stanley Fahn Awardee (and former Postdoc Awardee!) who will be looking at how environmental exposures accelerate senescence and influence #Parkinsons neurodegeneration @UABNews. @ParkinsonDotOrg

📢 Congratulations are in order for 2023 Postdoctoral Fellowship Awardee @tahneesaunders 🇦🇺, who will be restraining mitochondrial damage-induced inflammation to treat #Parkinsons disease @WEHI_research @ParkinsonDotOrg

Can you help us #ReachFurther? The Parkinson’s Foundation Reach Further campaign will invest an additional $30 million to accelerate progress on Parkinson’s disease research, improve care and increase access to quality-of-life programs. 💙 🩺 Learn more: youtu.be/-XJNWuU3wSA

Communication is multi-modal, including both speech & gesture. Many patients with left hemisphere stroke have impairments in both domains. Research in the Cognition & Action Lab at @MossResearch is helping us understand how gesture impairment (limb apraxia) impacts communication.

Did you know that the Parkinson's Foundation has resources specifically for Veterans with Parkinson's disease? For Military Appreciation Month, check out our YouTube playlist for Veterans with PD and their care partners: youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Sunny day in Philadelphia talking #Parkinson and meeting with great scientists @NeuroatJeff @Jeff_PD_center

@lvolpic @MichaelOkun Sample size is pretty solid. If nothing else study highlights the power of VA data resources. Lots of info locked in that DOS database!

@MichaelOkun Incidence of PD Camp Lejeune 0.33%, incidence at Camp Pendleton 0.21%. Difference is significant but is it meaningful? When I look at data actual data I see most people did not get PD.

The Water, the Air, the Marines: Camp Lejeune, Trichloroethylene, PD. In 2012, Goldman cohort of twins from World War II, occupational or hobby exposure TCE associated with a 500% increased risk of Parkinson disease. Now he reports in Camp Lejeune vets. jamanetwork.com/journals/jaman…
