Kenzie Jarchow: KLOTHO KL-VS genotype modifies the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and CSF biomarkers of neurodegeneration, synaptic dysfunction, and inflammation.
Bri Breidenbach: Cardiorespiratory Fitness Modifies the Influence of Cerebral Pulsatility on Amyloid Burden and Core CSF Biomarkers of Alzheimer’s Disease
Talia Brach: Cardiorespiratory Fitness Modifies the Influence of Cerebral Pulsatility on CSF Biomarkers Related to Neurodegeneration, Synaptic Dysfunction, and Neuroinflammation
Gabriella Mamlouk: Physical activity and sex modify the influence of diabetic-level insulin resistance on cognitive function in a cohort enriched with risk for Alzheimer’s disease
Kyle Edmunds: (1) Obstructive sleep apnea severity is associated with CSF biomarkers of synaptic dysfunction and neuroinflammation in a cohort at risk for AD, (2) BDNF Val66Met influences the mediation of sex differences in VLM scores by plasma BDNF in a cohort enriched with risk for Alzheimer’s disease
