Our paper on impaired sleep-wake rhythms predicting future Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and cognitive decline in the UK Biobank actigraphy cohort (N=82,829!) is out now in Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy ! ⌚️😴🏃‍♀️🧠alzres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Spread the word: do you love the locus coeruleus, brain networks, risk and resilience in AD, collaborating and having fun? Come join our team at MGH!

It’s a wrap! So much cool science, meeting friends and talking #locuscoeruleus ! #AAIC23 you were awesome, see you in Philadelphia next year! Elouise A Koops jmriphagen Yuliya Patsyuk 🇺🇦 Prokopis Prokopiou Eli Bueicheku Maxime Van Egroo Marion Baillet Nina Engels (Domínguez) Elise Beckers Schneider Christoph

So proud of Elouise A Koops and Marion Baillet for receiving the Alzheimer’s Association Research Fellowship!!

The Jacobs Lab (aka the Blue Spotters) is ready for the #AAIC23 , come and share your thoughts on our work on the #locuscoeruleus 🔵, sleep and stress in Alzheimer's disease!

Maastricht blue spot lab alumni and current members reunited Maastricht University Linda Pagen Roy Van Hooren Maxime Van Egroo jmriphagen Yuliya Patsyuk 🇺🇦 Elise Beckers Marion Baillet Jenny Pahl 💙🔵

Looking for a postdoc position on an exciting #locuscoeruleus functional networks project in Alzheimer's disease? Come join our lab at MGH, we love to tackle scientific challenges, have good food and fun! (preferred start date: fall/winter 2023, negotiable)

Excited to share our new #locuscoeruleus work in

Check this paper to get the foremost idea about the LC-NE system in sleep-wake regulations. Explains from normal to AD. Plus, it suggests a new theoretical framework in LC-NE regarding early sleep disturbances in aging and AD-pathogenesis.doi.org/10.1016/j.smrv…

Mark your calendars for the next ISTAART #SleepPIA Journal Club!🗓️Tuesday, Oct. 18th (9 to 10 am Central Time)
Maxime Van Egroo and Laura Stankeviciute, PhD will discuss two recent papers by Peng Li, Yue Leng, Bryce Mander and Ruth Benca🧠💤

Great to also see our work on the #locuscoeruleus and plasma markers highlighted in this #AAIC22 overview. Maxime Van Egroo , with Nicholas Ashton Oskar Hansson

We, the bluespotters, had an amazing, successful #AAIC22 !

If you’re interested in REM sleep and its associations with the basal forebrain, join us at 9:15am in ballroom 20D and online! #sleepPIA #NSSPIA #AAIC2022

Check out our lab's #AAIC22 work on the importance of the #locuscoeruleus in Alzheimer's disease! 🔵 We are active every day, discussing the LC in sleep, tau pathology, neurodegeneration, cognition using neuroimaging, pupillometry, vagus nerve stimulation, autopsy and plasma data

For those attending #AAIC22 in person, the #SleepPIA will be hosting a scientific session on Sat. 30th, 9:00am in the Balboa/Mission Hills room. Maxime Van Egroo and I will present our recent work! Come meet us! ISTAART #ENDALZ

New 🔵work by our blue spot team: lower novelty-related locus coeruleus function is associated with amyloid-related cognitive decline in clinically normal older individuals. So very proud of Prokopis Prokopiou & Nina Engels (Domínguez)! nature.com/articles/s4146… MGH Martinos Center Mass General Research Institute Gordon Center for Medical Imaging

Honored and excited to have received an Alzheimer's Association grant to study #locuscoeruleus 🔵, sleep architecture and AD-biomarkers with Maxime Van Egroo and Eus Van Someren. #ENDALZ
