Delighted to welcome a new Group Leader to our flagship vascular dementia research centre with @thebhf.bsky.social 🎉👏 Prof Catherine Hall @cathnaledi.bsky.social and her team will examine how changes in blood flow & oxygen supply drive the onset of vascular dementia & Alzheimer’s👉 buff.ly/gyouoEV

Delighted to share our latest review in Nature Reviews Neuroscience! We examine the growing evidence that vascular dysfunction plays a key role in cognitive decline in ageing and dementia, and argue that preserving/restoring CBF should be central to future therapies. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New paper led by @silvia-anderle.bsky.social Lifestyle matters for genetic Alzheimer’s disease risk: APOE4 reduces neurovascular function most in an already-stressed system,  when neurons are active and mice do less exercise. I'll tell you all about it! 🧪 #neuroscience #alzheimers rdcu.be/d74uh

Outstanding and inspiring study! Norepinephrine (NE)-mediated slow vasomotion drives glymphatic clearance during sleep www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... - NE release drives slow vasomotion in NREM sleep - NE oscillations trigger opposing changes in blood/CSF volumes & predicts glymphatic clearance

Infection with #SARSCoV2 has highlighted how altered endothelial functions contribute to multiorgan health effects during the acute phase of #COVID19 and potentially to the longer-term consequences associated with #LongCovid. Learn more in a new #SciencePerspective:
