Plasma MTBR-tau243 biomarker identifies tau tangle pathology in Alzheimer’s disease - Nature Medicine Plasma eMTBR-tau243 is a specific biomarker of tau tangles in Alzheimer’s disease and enables the detecting and tracking of Alzheimer’s clinical impairment.

We now have a blood biomarker that is even more strongly associated with tau PET and cognitive symptoms than even p-tau217! Plasma eMTBR-tau243 will help us to understand whether cognitive impairment is likely to be related to Alzheimer's pathology. #ENDALZ

Sexism Is a Risk Factor for Memory Decline Among Women Columbia researchers have found that women born in the most sexist U.S. states experience faster memory decline in later life compared to women born in the least sexist states.

New study finds that women born in the most sexist U.S. states experienced faster memory decline in later years compared to women born in the least sexist states. The difference was equivalent to nine years of cognitive aging.

A interesting body of commentary from key people on this critically important topic. Definitely worth a read. Is removing substantial amyloid plus meeting safety targets enough to approve a treatment for #Alzheimer's? #ENDALZ
