En la era de la inteligencia artificial, nuestra mayor ventaja seguirá siendo profundamente humana: aprender, crear, adaptarnos, empatizar, cooperar y tomar buenas decisiones. Por eso, cuidar la salud cerebral no es solo un desafío médico. Es invertir en educación, desarrollo y en el futuro de nuestras sociedades. Hoy en Bogotá, conversando sobre cómo llevar esta agenda de la evidencia a la acción.

Parkinson’s cases may have nearly quadrupled since 1990. We asked UCSF neurologist Carlie Tanner, MD, PhD, what’s driving the surge. Aging and genes don’t explain all of it. Her research points to environmental toxicants as an important contributor. ucsf.edu/news/2026/08/432396…

New in @CORTEXjournal: in one of the largest studies of children with persistent dyslexia, we found that similarly severe reading difficulties can stem from distinct underlying cognitive profiles. doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.202… #Dyslexia #Neuropsychology

Thank you to @TIME for the opportunity to discuss dementia prevention and the growing evidence on modifiable risk factors. Healthy lifestyle habits and management of vascular risk factors remains one of our greatest opportunities to promote healthy brain aging.

Federal research funding helped UCSF scientists discover that a simple blood test could identify people at high risk for Alzheimer's years before symptoms appear — giving them a chance to take steps that may delay the disease or slow its progression. tiny.ucsf.edu/STwNdy
