In close collaboration with Pedro Rosa-Neto from the Translational Neuroimaging Laboratory, McGill University, and different groups from the Neurology department at the UKE, we carried out a meta-analysis on oral anticoagulation use in people treated with anti-amyloid therapies. Additionally, we conducted a study comparing different p-tau blood analytes in APOE4 carriers, the biggest risk fact for AD. Read the studies in JNNP or Alzheimer's & Dementia, respectively, a nice way to end 2025! We want to thank all collaborators and patients who make our research possible 🙏
