Tau protein buildup is a hallmark of #Alzheimer’s disease and related #dementias. On Research Renaissance, UCLA physician‑scientist Dr. Tirth Patel (@UCLANeurology @HinmanLabUCLA) explains how meningeal lymphatic pathways help clear tau from the brain.

Interested in the role of #endothelia in #alzheimers? Come visit #aaic2026 poster 0238 on July 14 from talented neuroscience grad student Matthew Anderson @UCLANeurology @UCLANeuroTheme @UCLAEastonAD
Excited to visit #london for #aaic2026 @socALZ and represent my colleagues from @UCLANeurology and @UCLAEastonAD

The @UCLANeurology Easton Center staff had the opportunity to connect with caregivers at Keiro’s 2025 Caregiver Conference on Saturday, Oct. 25, in Gardena! They shared resources on #Alzheimers risk, the @UCLAHealth Amyloid Immunotherapy Care Program, and ongoing clinical trials.

Blood-based biomarker vs. brain imaging for diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and brain degeneration: 🎤 Mic drop. Game over.
Blood-based biomarkers of vascular cognitive impairment and dementia are in the works and coming! And before long we’ll have panels for overall brain health prediction. Exciting future!
Thanks #AAIC25 and @VascularPIA for the fun debate and @neurology_live for covering it.
At #AAIC25, @FannyElahi made the case for using blood-based biomarkers over imaging in Alzheimer’s diagnosis. In this @neurology_live interview, she explains their clinical promise and what’s next at @IcahnMountSinai.

Thrilled to be here!
Delighted to announce that Amy Gleichman, Ph.D., (@amy_gleichman) has joined @NeurosurgeryOSU and the @OSUGeneTherapy. She completed her Ph.D. at the University of Pennsylvania and post doctoral training at @UCLA. She brings incredible expertise that will further expand our gene therapy program for stroke and vascular dementia treatment.

June is #Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month. 🧠 The Easton Center for Alzheimer’s Research and Care at UCLA @UCLANeurology @UCLAHealth is dedicated to advancing research, delivering compassionate care, supporting families, and offering hope to those affected.💜
So excited to be back in #Boston to present new data on post-stroke biomarkers from @DiscoveryStudy with all the site PIs and CRCs. Great work supported by @NINDSfunding

On May 15th, the Annual Faith & Health Luncheon was co-sponsored by West Angeles Church, @alzheimersla, and @UCLAEastonAD. Over 300 members of local Black churches gathered to learn about #dementia caregiving, with a focus on wandering/ getting lost.

#AlzheimersDisease (AD) is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S., emphasizing the need for treatment.
Jesus Campagna, Dongwook Wi, Barbara Jagodzinska and Dr. Varghese John showcase how enhanced secretory clusterin improves memory in AD mice.
