Distinct Factors Drive the Spatiotemporal Progression of Tau Pathology in Older Adults
J Neurosci. 2022 Feb 16;42(7):1352-1361. doi: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.1601-21.2021. Epub 2021 Dec 29.
ABSTRACT
Mechanisms underlying the initial accumulation of tau pathology across the human brain are largely unknown. We examined whether baseline factors including age, amyloid-β (

ABSTRACT
Neurons in primate lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC) play a critical role in working memory (WM) and cognitive strategies. Consistent with adaptive coding models, responses of

ABSTRACT
Experimental sleep-wake disruption in rodents and humans causally modulates β-amyloid (Aβ) dynamics (e.g., [1-3]). This leads to the hypothesis that, beyond cross-
