Sleep, diet, and stress regulation are key to healthy aging but often decline early.

We investigated how the hypothalamus, the brain's control center for these functions, changes during normal aging and in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

HypoAD: volumetric and single-cell analysis reveals changes in the human hypothalamus in aging and Alzheimer's disease
Alterations in metabolism, stress response, sleep, circadian rhythms, and neuroendocrine processes are key features of aging and neurodegeneration. These fundamental processes are regulated by the hyp...

Male-Female comparisons are powerful in Biomedical Research. More on this and what is a "Pink Box Warning"?? From @ctmurphy1.bsky.social @bbparis1984.bsky.social Yousin Suh and me in the latest issue of Neuron www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Biological sex matters in brain aging
Every cell in the body has a biological sex. The expansion of aging research to investigate female- and male-specific biology heralds a major advance …
