- So excited to attend #AAIC25 in person again this year! Looking forward to a week of exciting science to #ENDALZ. Very proud of my trainees who will be presenting their work - don't forget to tune in!
- Reposted by Laura WisseThis is your quarterly reminder that the hippocampus is a cortical (not subcortical) structure! Nicola Palomero-Gallagher underscored this point during our #OHBM2025 educational course!
- Reposted by Laura WisseCome work in my dept! We are hiring a lecturer in psychology (ideally speaking Dutch) @leidenpsychology.bsky.social www.academictransfer.com/en/jobs/3529...
- Very proud of @anikawuestefeld.bsky.social for finishing her PhD thesis on the medial temporal lobe in aging and dementia! Following Swedish tradition, the thesis is now nailed to the wall.... last step before the defense next week. I have no doubt she will nail this too!

All thanks to an amazing new model from Fabian Isensee and colleagues at @helmholtzimaging.bsky.social!
- Very important article on Down syndrome and AD by Buehner et al.(shorturl.at/ETFUz) highlighting the non-linear trajectories of structural changes in MTL subregions in patients with Down syndrome & AD and the utility of MTL structural markers for clinical trials and prediction of decline.

Renegotiate or CUT Cat 3: don’t support but some DEI language. Cont./cut language in app/progress reports. Cat 4: don’t support any. Cont & DEI not in reports.
- Beautiful work by Niyousha Sadeghpour developing a manual segmentation protocol for the anterior MTL cortex, important in AD and LATE! Grounded in a large set of annotated histology sections and postmortem MRI scans, labelled by the late Ricardo Insausti & his team. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Excited that is also available in new version of ASHS including not only anterior MTL cortical regions but also the amygdala! www.nitrc.org/frs/shownote... The amygdala protocol developed by @anikawuestefeld.bsky.social is described in the supplements of alzres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
- Lovely collaboration with Renaud La Joie - our review is finally out! Summarizing the role of tau and TDP-43 in medial temporal atrophy in Alzheimer's disease and exploring different hypotheses regarding their potential timing and synergism. alz-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
