AMiNDR: A Month in Neurodegenerative Disease Research101 - Treatments targeting tau protein in Alzheimer's Disease: September 2020In this episode, Marcia will cover papers published in Sept 2020 on treatment development for AD with special focus on the tau protein. She discusses tau in its role as a microtubule-associated protein and the related use of microtubule-stabilizing agents in treating AD. She also talks about papers on immunotherapy, autophagy, and inhibiting tau hyperphosphorylation. Tune in to hear about all of this and more! ------------------------------------------------------------------ To receive the list of papers covered, please fill this form: --------> https://forms.gle/CVVbznAFM8pamdgk6 ------- or by tweeting at us: @AMiNDR_podcast ...2021-01-2718 min

AMiNDR: A Month in Neurodegenerative Disease Research58 - Blood Biomarkers: Alzheimer's Disease August 2020Today we have another episode focused on the latest findings in Alzheimer’s disease blood biomarkers research, where Elyn covers abstracts from papers published in August 2020. These papers were clumped together based on the fact that they all focused on measuring something in the blood to either predict or diagnose Alzheimer disease – making them blood biomarkers!In this episode, you’ll hear about a range of analytes that were useful in diagnosing, or predicting Alzheimer disease. Some of these are the usual suspects of amyloid, tau, and neurodegeneration markers like neurofilament light,... You’ll also hear about some new...2020-11-1833 min
AMiNDR: A Month in Neurodegenerative Disease Research32 - CSF & Mixed Biomarkers: Alzheimer's Disease June 2020Having trouble keeping up with the literature in Alzheimer's Disease? We are here to help! Elyn is back to cover other fluid biomarkers found in the CSF in AD, as well as biomarkers found elsewhere! You will hear about neurofilament light, hormones, synaptic markers, staging MCI... Some papers on imaging also somehow made it here (surprise). Enjoy the episode and keep your eye out for more biomarker episodes coming very soon! ------------------------------------------------------------------ To receive the list of papers covered (with timestamps), please fill this form: --------> https://forms.gle/CVVbzn...2020-10-1737 min
