Exercise improves brain health, but can it also delay brain aging? In a randomized controlled trial, we show that moderate- and heavy-resistance training significantly reduced accelerated aging in brain clocks (estimated with fMRI). The effect is global and distributed, not confined to single brain hubs. Simple, scalable interventions can meaningfully shape brain clock trajectories in healthy aging. Move the body to slow the brain’s tick-tock.

At @lundbeckfonden Hearts x Minds Festival in Aarhus, @TheilGates and Eline Baad-Hansen talked about physical health and cognitive function with exercise 💙 🧠 💪

The second paper from Mads Bloch-Ibenfeldt's PhD is now online! 🦴🏋️‍♀️ "Heavy resistance training provides short-term benefits on bone formation in well-functioning older adults" @boraxbekk @TheilGates sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Three ISMC researchers through to the #Lassendag high speed presentation competition! @grith_hojfeldt Brian Sorensen and @TheilGates 🤩💪🤞

First round of poster pitch at @MUSKOS_PhD annual meeting from our researchers. Great jobs all round! @grith_hojfeldt @Soendenbroe @TheilGates @KennethHMertz1

A substudy from the LISA-study including muscle biopsy data is now online😁 -> thieme-connect.de/products/e…

Congratulations 🎉 Mads Bloch Ibenfeldt on your first first-author publication 🙌 and the well deserved coverage it got throughout the globe 🌎 @guardian @washingtonpost @dagensnyheter @TheilGates @naiarademnitz @KarlogKaroline @boraxbekk @UCPH_health bmjopensem.bmj.com/content/1…

Postdoc @TheilGates, final year PhD student Mads Bloch-Ibenfeldt and Sports Science bachelor students Julie Gamst and Magnus Sundberg will be at Panum tonight for @KulturnattenKbh Come by and say Hej 👋 and get an estimation of your VO2max! 💪 @sundaldring

Yesterday the @boraxbekk Brain buddies @TheilGates @naiarademnitz & Mads Bloch-Ibenfeldt presented data from the first 4 years of the ongoing LISA-study in front of 140 of the participants who volunteer in the project. Wonderful engagement and evening 💪❤️ @sundaldring

When I think back to how I stumbled nervously through my first conference presentation, Karoline did such a good job this morning 👏🇫🇷👏 ECSS has always been a good place to start! #bekinditmightbetheirfirsttime #ECSS2023 @E_C_S_S

Exciting times ahead with @AbigailMackey1 starting on March 1st as Clinical Professor in Muscle Physiology and Regeneration after Traumatic Soft-Tissue Injury at Dept of Clinical Medicine, based @ISMCopenhagen! #myotwitter

I am one proud mentee! After an excellent public defense lasting no less than 3.5 hours with questions spanning from evolution theory to single cell RNA-seq and of course lots of satellite cells, we now have a Dr² Mackey among us!! Congratulations Dr² @AbigailMackey1
