Great science in beautiful Lisbon #ADPD2024

Stanford Knight Initiative for Brain Resilience@BrainResilience

Last week, we attended #ADPD2024, where we learned about emerging research, clinical trials, and treatments for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. It was great to meet and listen to leading international experts and discuss the latest news and trends in the field. Thank you @EU_Brain!

How can we slow aging or rejuvenate brains and other organs without having biomarkers to test interventions? @JarodRutledge1 and @hammy_oh may have a solution tinyurl.com/2wzxkrck. Congrats and thanks to these superstars and to all for this massive effort!
