✈️Our team is attending the next #AAIC24 meeting in Philadelphia! 🌎The Alzheimer's Association® International Conference (#AAIC) is the largest and most influential global meeting dedicated to advancing dementia science. It brings together the world's leading researchers, clinicians, and care professionals to share groundbreaking research and innovative ideas to improve the understanding and treatment of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. 📚 Studies suggest that eye-tracking, by detecting early deficits in eye movement control and error correction due to frontal and parietal lobe degeneration, can identify Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias like Fronto-Temporal Dementia (#FTD), Parkinson’s Disease Dementia (#PDD), and Dementia with Lewy Bodies (#DLB) in the preclinical stage, potentially improving diagnostic precision and effectiveness. Our head of sales-Heather Keith and business developer- Valentin Van Cauwenberg would love to connect with you and discuss our project: an all-in-one eye tracking assistant, designed by clinicians to bring the wealth of eye movements into the consultation. #biomarkers #neuroscience #eyetracking * neuroClues is in research & development phase and will soon go through regulatory approval.

Breaking Ground in #Alzheimers Research: Recent studies indicate that blood tests for Alzheimer's hallmarks - beta amyloid and phosphorylated tau - can detect brain pathology years before cognitive decline. Blood-based tests offer low-cost, non-invasive diagnostic tools to support early disease intervention. The FNIH Plasma Abeta/pTau Project (https://bit.ly/42g6csp) is leading the way, using data to identify early signs of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) through a simple blood test. Leveraging Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) investments, this team is compiling the largest longitudinal, cross-platform AD hashtag#biomarker dataset to date, fostering trust in these tests through precompetitive collaborative efforts. Join us in the quest for next-gen markers to understand the diverse drivers of Alzheimer's. Interested? Let us know! https://lnkd.in/gXka4Rfx Blood-based AD tests in the news: NPR: https://lnkd.in/eGaUZgDJ CNN Health: https://lnkd.in/eh2Knmsa TIME: https://lnkd.in/edviXKwQ #AlzheimersResearch #BrainHealth #EarlyDetection #MedicalResearch #FNIHProject #Biomarker #ADNI #Neuroscience #HealthScience #CognitiveHealth #HealthcareInnovation #ResearchCollaboration #tau #Alzheimers #BloodTest #BetaAmyoid #FNIH #BiomarkersConsortium

Brain Awareness Week continues and this time it brings with it the topic of stroke. Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability, dementia, epilepsy, or death. The number of people affected by stroke is increasing due to the aging of the population, and therefore new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are needed. Cooperation between the academic and business spheres can help to achieve necessary results. BioVendor Group is part of the STROKE BRNO research cluster. The mission is the interdisciplinary linking of the research institutions and university hospital with the involvement of experienced experts and talented young scientists and cooperation with the government. We also cooperated on the development of new methods in the diagnostics of stroke as a part of the INBIO project, which ended in 2023. One of the goals of the project was the development of thrombolytics for the treatment of stroke. Thrombolytics are also a strong research topic at Loschmidt Laboratories, Faculty of Science, Masaryk University and RECETOX. We are very proud to be part of the stroke scientific community, helping stroke patients by building up an efficient scientific network to accelerate the development of innovative treatments.

The integration of #Alzheimer's blood tests into clinical care will represent a significant advancement in accurate and minimally-invasive screening. As momentum builds, the identification of new treatment targets and #biomarkers becomes crucial. Initiatives like Accelerating Medicines Partnership® (AMP®) Alzheimer's Disease play a pivotal role in advancing target and biomarker discovery for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). AMP AD's commitment to driving precision medicine research positions it as a crucial ally in unraveling the intricacies of Alzheimer's. These efforts guide us toward a future where targeted treatments offer relief to patients grappling with this disease. https://lnkd.in/eUbhiPbq AMP AD and more will be discussed at the upcoming AMP Symposium! https://lnkd.in/eFN93ZWt #AlzheimersResearch #BrainHealth #EarlyDetection #MedicalResearch #FNIHProject #Biomarkers #AMP #FNIH #Neuroscience #HealthScience #CognitiveHealth #HealthcareInnovation #ResearchCollaboration #Alzheimers #BloodTest

It seems exciting developments in the Alzheimer’s space keep coming: yesterday the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) Biomarkers Consortium announced a transformative shift in Alzheimer’s diagnostics—blood tests are now pinpointing amyloid plaques with the precision needed for clinical use. This leap forward means less invasive, more accessible testing for patients, and by opening the study’s detailed datasets, we can accelerate the pace of innovation, pushing us closer to new solutions in Alzheimer’s care. Looking ahead, I’m excited to join the FNIH’s Team Science Day on September 16 in New York. We're bringing together the best from the public and private sectors tackling health's toughest challenges. Expect insights from top minds like The National Institutes of Health's Monica Bertagnolli and FDA’s Peter Marks. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gPSVSJs8 Together, we’re making waves in healthcare innovation – let’s keep pushing the boundaries! #Innovation #Alzheimers #PowerofPublicPrivatePartnership #HealthcareLeadership #ScienceRules
Today at #AAIC24, a study by the FNIH Biomarkers Consortium will be presented comparing the accuracy of leading blood tests in detecting amyloid plaques, a characteristic of Alzheimer’s disease. The results demonstrate that some blood tests are accurate enough for clinical use and could replace spinal taps and brain scans for diagnosing patients with cognitive impairment. The latest advances in blood tests mark a significant step forward in Alzheimer's research, addressing a critical need for more accessible and less invasive diagnostic tools. The rich dataset generated by this collaborative study is freely available to the scientific community to use for further research, accelerating the development of Alzheimer’s diagnostic tools and therapeutic options.

📖 A recent study explores the engram, a concept that refers to the physical manifestation of memory in the brain, and its implications for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Focusing on hippocampal neurogenesis, this research offers insights into memory circuit disruptions in dementia and employs advanced techniques for the precise manipulation of engram cells. 💡 Highlights: 1. The engram, a key to understanding memory storage and retrieval, shows how hippocampal neurogenesis impacts both healthy and Alzheimer's-affected brains. 2. Advanced opto- and chemogenetics facilitate precise manipulation of engram cells, allowing for a deeper understanding of memory processes. 3. The integration of mature and immature neurons in the dentate gyrus's engram offers fresh perspectives on memory formation and Alzheimer’s disease. 4. Memory engram research points towards novel therapeutic strategies for dementia, emphasizing the role of neurogenesis and neuron integration. Insights into memory reconsolidation reveal how memories are modified upon retrieval, suggesting potential for retrieving lost memories in Alzheimer's disease.
