It has been 11 great years with Journal of #Parkinsons disease as a constantly present side job! Looking forward to more scientific challenges at @Roche, and bringing novel therapies to the clinic. Thank you @basbloem and Jeff (who still needs Twitter!) for a fun article!!

Replying to @BrundinPatrik
@BrundinPatrik is stepping down as co-editor-in-chief of @journal_PD which he co-founded 11 years ago. This special editorial (I like the title 😁) is to thank Patrik for his indispensable & simply wonderful contribution to the journal. THANK YOU, PATRIK! content.iospress.com/article…

I’m so encouraged that the crucial topic of diversity in genetic studies is gaining momentum. Our review @Brain1878 with @ritajlg @josetb @TheGBLab @VAInstitute is now online! This work would not be possible without the support of @NIH #FirstFirstAuthor academic.oup.com/brain/advan…

How understudied populations have contributed to our understanding of Alzheimer’s disease genetics

The majority of genome-wide association studies in Alzheimer’s disease have used samples with a European genetic background. Dehghani et al. discuss the tr

“Many people who have relatives with [Alzheimer's] never develop the disease, and many without a family history of the disease do develop it." Dr. Rita Guerreiro of @TheGBLab is featured in this @DiscoverMag article about #Alzheimers genetic precursors discovermagazine.com/health/…

Is Alzheimer's Disease Genetic: Could It Run In Your Family?

Certain genes are associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s. Learn more about what these genes mean for you.
