How does the brain rapidly distinguish similar memories? We use 7T fMRI to show dynamic shifts between pattern separation and reinstatement signals in hippocampal CA3 and DG with changing task demands: doi.org/10.64898/202...

In seinem von uns geförderten Projekt testet @davidberron.bsky.social vom @dzne.science, wie sich erste kognitive Veränderungen durch einfache Gedächtnistests auf dem Smartphone erfassen lassen – bequem von zu Hause aus. Mehr Infos zum Projekt gibt es im Video ▶️

👋Hello from ACCESS-AD! We’re delighted to launch ACCESS-AD, a new @ihieurope.bsky.social project focused on bringing #Alzheimer’s disease innovation into routine clinical practice - supporting timely diagnosis, treatment & monitoring across Europe 🇪🇺 Read our press release: bit.ly/ACCESS-AD_la...

‼️NEW PREPRINT‼️ What if you could take a normal 3T T1w MRI and make it look like it was acquired from a 7T scanner? That's exactly what we do using AI in our new preprint! Link: arxiv.org/abs/2507.13782 #neuroskyence #neurosky #compneuro #AI #datascience #neurology #mrisky #neuroimaging

Save the date: #SAA2026 will take place on 3-5 August 226 in Vienna 🇦🇹. We will be hosted by @lauramkoenig.bsky.social @alearuf.bsky.social @univie.ac.at

Paper alert! @davidberron.bsky.social and team tackled: What are the recent advances in remote and unsupervised digital cognitive assessment of preclinical AD? The review covers 28 studies and 23 tools, offering a clear overview of recent advances and challenges. 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

There are days in life that shake you. I’m shattered 💔 to share that I just found out that the US Government terminated my 2024 NIH Director’s Early Independence Award (~$2 million), threatening my long-promised assistant professor job at Columbia University & academic career... 1/🧵

🚀 Forschungs- und Innovationswende in Deutschland: Es ist Zeit für große Schritte! 🏃 Die digitale Transformation wartet nicht auf uns. Die #Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft zeigt in 6 Punkten, worauf es in den Koalitionsverhandlungen jetzt ankommt, um Deutschland an die #Innovationsspitze zu bringen. 🧵 (1/6)

Demenzdiagnosen sind aufwendig und werden oft spät gestellt. @davidberron.bsky.social und Kollegen am @dzne.science in Magdeburg haben eine 📱-App mit Gedächtnistests entwickelt. Damit können schon früh Gedächtnisprobleme erkannt werden, die auf eine #Demenz hinweisen ➡️ tinyurl.com/4ynfazxm #dementia

It was an intense two days at the seminar on #digital #approaches in #neuropsychology as part of the Psychology Master's program in Clinical Neuroscience. The highlight was the hands-on experience with digital tools in different use cases, each highlighting a specific strength of digital approaches

OK folks, I've started an episodic memory starter pack. By no means a full list so reply below if you're an episodic memory nerd! go.bsky.app/2mtNK43

Can remote and unsupervised smartphone-based cognitive assessments detect cognitive impairment in AD and, in combination with novel blood biomarkers, predict future cognitive decline? We investigated this in the Swedish BioFINDER study - check out our new paper tinyurl.com/DigitalBioma...

Honoured and grateful to have been awarded the BrightFocus postdoctoral fellowship for research into the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. A huge thank you to my mentor @davidberron.bsky.social! So excited to work on this project in the years to come 🎉

Ideas need Diversity and Cooperation: That is why we take a clear stand against discrimination, racism and narrow-mindedness - and for an open, free society, for democracy and diversity. Our full statement 👉 www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

New paper day! "Multiband acquisition sequences for fMRI: Proceed with caution" apertureneuro.org/article/9129... VERY proud of this one as it's my first editorial piece. Big thanks to @layerfmri.bsky.social and @fmri-today.bsky.social for asking me to do it. #neuroskyence

Alright, I’m finally leaving Twitter so I’ll start using this app for real. I hope it’ll be more similar to what I loved with the science Twitter I loved and learned so much from years ago. But first, wishing everyone a good break!

Check out our new review on the amygdala in AD, led by the fantastic Kaitlin Stouffer! It was about time that this structure receives more attention in AD - we even argue for its involvement in an additional NFT progression pathway tinyurl.com/amygdalaAD Thread below👇🧵 (1/8)

Save the date!! 🗓️ April 11-12, 2024 in Toronto 🍁 (prior to CNS) The HSG will hold a training opportunity to learn the harmonized body protocol for hippocampal subfields! 🧠🍤 A preprint of the protocol and additional registration details are forthcoming.

Happy Monday HSGers! 🧠🫶 A reminder that our Marcus Wallenberg Symposium on "Activities of the Hippocampal Subfields Group - a progress update" takes place LIVE on zoom one week from today! Register to get your link and view the final program here: tinyurl.com/hsg-symposiu...

It’s not uncommon for people with dementia to get lost or find themselves in unusual situations. Thus, DZNE.de launched the #bademantelchallenge, where people photograph themselves in bathrobes in unusual public places to raise awareness of Alzheimer's and show solidarity with patients and carers.
