ISTAART Relay Podcast - Electrophysiology PIA

Published: July 22, 2021, midnight

The Dementia Researcher, ISTAART PIA Relay Podcast is back for a second, 5-part series. Where the interviewee becomes the interviewer. With five leading researchers discussing their research, their field, and the work of the Alzheimer\u2019s Association ISTAART Professional Interest Area they represent.\n\nPart Four \u2013 Dr Betty Tijms interviews Dr Claudio Babiloni\n\nDr Betty Tijms is an Associate Professor at the Alzheimer center, department of Neurology, Amsterdam UMC in the Netherlands. Jennifer\u2019s research focusses on better understanding interindividual differences in the early stages of Alzheimer\u2019s disease that are related to developing dementia, through MR imaging and CSF proteomic analyses. She has recently, started work on cerebrospinal fluid proteomics as one of the most comprehensive measures to get more insight into interindividual differences in underlying pathophysiological processes. Betty is representing the Neuroimaging PIA.\n\nDr Claudio Babiloni is an Associate Professor of Physiology at Sapienza University of Rome. Claudio is investigating the brain rhythms underlying the regulation of vigilance and cognitive functions in aging, with a particular interest in the main progressive neurodegenerative diseases leading to dementia such as Alzheimer's, Lewy body, and Parkinson's diseases. The primary methods of this research are EEG and neuroimaging techniques. Claudio is representing the Electrophysiology PIA.\n\nYou can find out more about our panellists, and their work on our website:\n\nhttps://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk\n\nA transcript of this podcast is also available here\n\nhttps://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/podcast-relay-one-season-2\n___________________________\n\nThe Alzheimer's Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer's Research and Treatment (ISTAART) convenes the global Alzheimer's and dementia science community. Members share knowledge, fuel collaboration and advance research to find more effective ways to detect, treat and prevent Alzheimer's and other dementias. Professional Interest Areas (PIA) are an assembly of ISTAART members with common subspecialties or interests.\n\nThere are currently 27 PIA covering a wide range of interests and fields, from the PIA to Elevate Early Career Researchers to Biofluid Based Biomarkers and everything in between.\n\nTo sign-up to ISTAART and a PIA visit www.alz.org/istaart/\n_________________________\n\nFinally, please review, like, and share our podcast - and don't forget to subscribe to ensure you never miss an episode.\n\nRegister on our website to receive your weekly bulletin, and to access more great content \u2013 blogs, science, career support + much more.\n\nThis podcast is brought to you in association with Alzheimer's Research UK and Alzheimer's Society, who we thank for their ongoing support.\n\nFinally, the views and opinions expressed by guests in this podcast represent those of the guests and do not necessarily reflect those of NIHR Dementia Researchers, PIA membership, ISTAART or the Alzheimer's Association.
