Do s*x differences influence white matter vulnerability in autosomal dominant Alzheimer’s disease? Our new paper in Brain Communications suggests they do, revealing distinct s*x-specific patterns of microstructural alterations in ADAD mutation carriers linked to brain pathology and structure-function coupling. Check it out!

Congrats to Averi Giudicessi and co-authors for getting this work published! 🤩

Did you know women are disproportionately affected by Alzheimer’s? In the U.S., about two thirds of people living with Alzheimer’s are women, and roughly 1 in 5 women over age 65 will develop the disease compared with about 1 in 10 men. Women also make up about 60 to 70 percent of Alzheimer’s caregivers, many of whom are daughters or spouses caring for family members. Because of these responsibilities, female caregivers often experience higher rates of chronic stress, sleep problems, and weakened immune function.

This International Women’s Day, let’s take a moment to recognize the women affected by Alzheimer’s and the many caregivers who support their loved ones every day 🧠

This year was an exceptional one for our lab! We successfully transitioned to a new institution while continuing our mission to train the next generation of clinical scientists focused on Alzheimer’s disease. Our team has grown and thrived, supporting 5 postdoctoral fellows, 5 PhD students, 1 master’s student, 2 undergraduate students, 4 research coordinators, and 3 junior faculty members.

We are proud to continue advancing our research in autosomal dominant Alzheimer’s disease, as well as in aging and dementia among older Latino and non-Latino populations. We are deeply grateful to our research participants for their incredible commitment, and to our outstanding team for their dedication, collaboration, and hard work.

We’re excited and energized as we look ahead to an amazing 2026! 🎉
