This morning, I presented my research on sex differences in human head direction signals at the Sfn annual conference. It’s nice to catch up with latest findings in human spatial neuroscience through the group discussion session with other speakers.

This week, I attended the annual Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC) by presenting a poster “Predicting Brain Amyloid Status Using the NIH Toolbox for Assessment of Neurological and Behavioral Function” (virtually by me, in person in Armsterdam, NL by my co-author Prof. Hiroko Dodge). This is my first presentation at Alzheimer’s conference and hope it’s a good start.

This month, I attended the BrightFocus AD Fast Track 2022 workshop in San Diego (Thanks to the support of BrightFocus Travel Diversity Fellowship). The immersive workshop gave me a good head start on cutting-edge research related to Alzheimer’s dementia. Afterwards, I attended Sfn 2022 and gave a talk titled “Evidence for a distributed head direction and travel trajectory system in the human brain during active navigation” at the nanosymposium “Memory Encoding and Spatial Navigation” on Wednesday afternoon (Nov. 16).

This week, I attended the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) Annual Fall Meeting in Chicago (Thanks to the support of MADRC). It’s eye opening meeting researchers from other ADRCs across the country and it’s great to observe the development of NACC data. Big and complicated scientific questions really need collaborations from scientists with multidisciplinary background.
