Investigating the mysteries of neurodegeneration using post-mortem brain & eye tissue. Lab is lead by Dietmar Thal.gbiomed.kuleuven.be/english/resear… KU Leuven (Belgium)Joined May 2024
New research from our lab (@Greg_Walkiew): Retinal Tau in TAU58 mice worsens with age, leading to ganglion cell loss. AD brain lysates accelerate retinal Tau, spreading to the brain and triggering neuroinflammation. A key role of retina in #Alzheimer’s 👁️

You can now join our new LATE @ISTAART PIA! 🧠
istaart.alz.org/groups/home/87
With this PIA, we want to raise awareness of this dementia-driving pathology, foster collaborations, and ultimately improve TDP-43 targeting therapies.
Stay tuned!

🎓 I’ve completed my PhD at KU Leuven in the Neuropathology Lab, studying the link between Alzheimer's disease 🧠 and the eye 👁️. Now seeking a postdoc position to continue exploring neurodegeneration.

This weekend, our lab proudly participated in Day of Science! We hosted a lecture, guided visitors through our lab, and shared fascinating insights about the brain and neurodegenerative diseases at our stand.
It was inspiring to connect with so many curious minds! #DVDW2024
Fresh paper alert! 🧠🔬This study sought to characterize pure LATE-NC using data from 32 ADRCs. Importantly, it suggests that pure LATE-NC occurs in about 5% of the elderly population, and is usually associated with #dementia.

Last Saturday, we hosted another fantastic workshop at Kinderuniversiteit in Leuven! The Ultimate Kids Brain Challenge was full with puzzles, questions, games, and creative tasks. Great team, great fun! Huge thanks to Helena, Bas, Bas, and Colin! #Teamwork#Kinderuniversiteit
Our representation at #BrainMosaic24, showcasing the heterogeneity of protein aggregates in #Alzheimers.
Great talks and cutting-edge techniques inspiring future progress in understanding the brain. Thanks @VIBConferences!
Another interesting talk delivered by @wormduty from @embl at #BrainMosaic24. The Arendt lab has gathered an incredible amount of data allowing deep insights into molecular machinery, circuits and neurons see throughout evolution!
