We are proud to announce a collaboration with @ARC_Neuro at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine to harness AI for rapid discovery and innovation in Alzheimer’s disease research. Using Lens, the Center and Tempus teams will work together to uncover genomic patterns that have the potential to advance the understanding of Alzheimer’s disease, investigate the gene and cell types affected, enable the development of new therapeutics, and accelerate the creation of novel clinical applications.

I am excited to present our new study out in @NatureMedicine where we discover a novel synaptic protein biomarker to predict if and when someone will get Alzheimer’s disease dementia. Part 2/3 from my PhD work in the @wysscoray lab. 🧵1/12 Full study 🔗: nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

This Northwestern Breakthroughs podcast nicely encapsulates our study. The host does a great job leading the discussion for the lay audience to digest our work. I hope this allows people to better understand the results and impact of this study. youtu.be/bZrdwGQ_Ok0

Alzheimer’s treatment may lie in the brain’s cleanup crew 🧠 For decades, scientists have worked to stop Alzheimer’s disease by removing amyloid beta plaques. Now, a @NorthwesternMed study finds the brain’s own immune cells can clear them more effectively.

Excited to share our latest @NatureMedicine study from our new center @ARC_Neuro! 🧠✨ Using spatial transcriptomics & scRNA-seq, we uncover how Aβ-targeting immunotherapies shape microglial responses in AD patient brains. A thread with our key findings is below! 🧵(1/15)
