Описание: In this episode of the ISTAART Relay Podcast, Dr Jessica Caldwell, a neuropsychologist and director at the Cleveland Clinic, interviews Dr Ece Bayram, the newly appointed assistant professor and incoming communications chair for the ISTAART Lewy Body Dementias PIA.

They explore Ece’s research on sex differences in genetics and environmental risk factors for Lewy body dementia. Ece shares insights into her innovative projects, the work of their PIA, plans for the upcoming AAIC and the significance of understanding sex and gender differences in neurodegenerative diseases, and the importance of designing research with community involvement. They also discuss the challenges of conducting studies in diverse populations and the need for global collaboration.

Tune in to hear about the exciting developments in Lewy body dementia research and the impact of community-driven studies on advancing the field.

The 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.

There are currently 30 PIAs covering a wide range of interests and fields, from the PIA to Elevate Early Career Researchers to Biofluid Based Biomarkers and everything in between.
