Bhumika updates you on the new papers that use brain imaging to diagnose and study AD, in the first of two episodes on this topic! This includes new advances in MRI and PET imaging, and machine learning approaches. You'll hear about studies that looked at changes to functional connectivity, cortical thickness, and other neurological changes in AD, as well as new and improved methods to analyze brain imaging data. Stay tuned for more in Part 2 -- coming out on Sunday, Nov 8!
