Super thrilled to share our most recent work, published today in @Nature! Adam Schroer and Brit Ventura led this tour de force study, which shows that a platelet factor in blood plasma – PF4 – can attenuate inflammation and rescue cognition in aging:

Wonderful to be able to share this fantastic new work in @biorxivpreprint led by @HerberCharlotte (and in collaboration with @VilledaLab) on how aging impacts spatial coding and memory!
I'm excited to share a preprint reflecting my PhD work with @lisa_giocomo, where we characterized the impact of aging on the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC), a key hub of spatial coding and memory. 🧵below! https://t.co/XYULR1Zb5m (1/11)

This is a super cool convergence of work coming out of the labs of @DenaDubal @UCSF and Tara Walker @QldBrainInst demonstrating that the same plate factor – PF4 – can rejuvenate cognition in the context of klotho, exercise and young blood! @NatureAging @NatureComms
