Dr. Angel Font (@caixaresearch.bsky.social) emphasized the Foundation’s sustained support for the ALFA Study, led at the #BBRC and @fpmaragall.bsky.social.

He thanked the volunteers, whose generosity exemplifies participatory science and paves the way to better Alzheimer’s diagnosis and treatment.

Our researchers Dr. @macips01.bsky.social and Dr. Marta del Campo participated in a round table, offering two complementary perspectives: the vision of a consolidated platform and the fresh outlook of a new group.

Firstly, Dr. Arcadi Navarro, Director of @fpmaragall.bsky.social and #BarcelonaBeta, reflected on the fact that Alzheimer’s is the pandemic of an ageing society, affecting 57M+ people. Yet, research is underfunded. Investing in research is investing in healthy ageing.

Today, under the theme “100,000 reasons to continue towards a future without Alzheimer’s”, we’ll discuss science, social commitment and key developments, including a round table with two perspectives: a consolidated platform and a new group.

Organised by @ajuntamentbcn.bsky.social and @csiccat.bsky.social, this activity brings science closer to citizens and highlights local initiatives to improve air quality and community health. 🧠💚

🔸Women showed higher levels of #synaptic biomarkers.
🔸Men showed higher levels of biomarkers linked to #neurodegeneration, #glial activation, and #vascular dysregulation.
🔸#CSF biomarkers are more indicative of #amyloid accumulation in the brain of women

The study analysed over 900 cognitively unimpaired participants, including participants in the ALFA+ cohort supported by @caixaresearch.bsky.social.

While both sexes can be classified equally well when detecting amyloid in the brain, the study found out important differences:

MENOBRAIN will help uncover how menopause-related changes drive brain ageing and #Alzheimer’s risk and will bring together a multidisciplinary consortium of 18 participants and will train 15 PhD candidates.

We’ll combine blood biomarkers with digital cognitive monitoring tools, enabling more accurate tracking of brain health, with updated data from the #ALFA cohort.

This opens the door to earlier detection, personalized treatments, and more preventive medicine.
