A year ago I was finishing the neurology training. Today I started as an assistant professor at UFRGS

Incredibly happy with this BIG challenge.

Special thanks to my mentor Eduardo Zimmer and the Alzheimer's Association for supporting me 🧠👨‍🔬

We thank American Academy of Neurology for the incredible visibility they are giving us at AAN2024 and in their channels, which is already helping with the reach of our study

In A&D Journals, we present one of the pioneering studies of blood biomarkers in a cohort from the region.

Delighted to have worked on this with the Tobago Health Study group.

In Nature Communications, we validate plasma BD-tau as AD-type N marker:

- BD-tau is amyloid driven & assoc. w/ atrophy;

- Abnormal p-tau & BD-tau confers faster cognitive decline and atrophy;

- BD-tau is less responsive to kidney fxn effects.

In this paper led by my grad student Przemek in Gothenburg, we describe p-tau212 as a new blood biomarker for Alzheimer’s disease 🩸.
- Plasma p-tau212 had same accuracies as p-tau217.
- P-tau212 antibody stained tangle structures in postmortem brains.
