Dr. Derek Archer discussing how white matter changes can be seen up to 22 years prior to Alzheimer’s Disease. #VandyADday
It’s been such a great day hearing about all of the exciting ADRD research going on across Vanderbilt University Vanderbilt Health Vanderbilt Memory and Alzheimer's Center! Now for the keynote from Prashanthi Vemuri #VandyADday
Thrilled to talk with this alumnus from IACL at JHU and superhero in brain age estimation!!! To be honest, I felt a little nervous when presenting my work to the giant in this research area. Luckily he’s very nice.🤣

Thank Bennett Landman (Vanderbilt MASI Lab) for introducing me!
I am so proud of my mentee Dr. Francis Cambronero! 👏🏻 In addition to earning her PhD on Wednesday, her #VandyADday presentation underlined her leadership in #diversity , #inclusion , #equity , + #justice .
Outstanding data blitz for #VandyADDay by SchragLAB undergraduate researcher Elena Solopova! She used MRIs of post-mortem brain to evaluate the presence of LOX-positive astrocytes in white matter disease and CAA.

#Inclusion + #representation of racial + ethnic diversity in #alzheimers research is essential for advancing discoveries + #clinicaltrial success. Visuals by Impulse PhD candidate + #HHMIGilliam Fellow, Francis Cambronero, is presenting a timely update on this important topic at #VandyADday
It’s Alzheimer’s Disease Research Day at Vanderbilt. Great line-up of talks today! Vanderbilt Memory and Alzheimer's Center Vanderbilt Neurology Vanderbilt Brain Institute #VandyADday #vumcneuro
It’s #datablitz time for Cody Marshall, Maddie Spetz, Xue Zhong, Lyuan Xu, + Dr. Yuting Tan! This year, we had 50 impressive abstract submissions representing labs across @VUMC_Health + Vanderbilt University. Tune in around 6:30pm to see our poster winners. #VandyADday
Excited to present my poster “Associations Between Plasma Phosphorylated Tau and Domain-Based Cognition Across the Alzheimer’s Disease Clinical Spectrum” today! Vanderbilt Memory and Alzheimer's Center #VandyADday
Tim Hohman talks about leveraging harmonized “big data” sources to understand mechanisms of neuro-resilience. Incredible promise in this work. Vanderbilt Neurology Vanderbilt Brain Institute Vanderbilt Memory and Alzheimer's Center #vumcneuro #VandyADday
Rebecca Buchanan won the poster competition (again 🥇🔥) but if there was a prize for cutest lab you know we’d have won that too in our ombré outfit lineup. #VandyADDay
Days after our 4th annual Vanderbilt Memory and Alzheimer's Center #VandyADday focused on health #disparities in #ADRD , I am still feeling energized + inspired. Jonathan Jackson, PhD delivered a powerful keynote + challenged all of us to be more thoughtful + intentional about how we approach #disparities research. (1/2)
