🎉 Thrilled to share a new publication from the lab!
We examined whether and how different denoising approaches affect #Alzheimers-related diagnostic differences in #graph_theory_metrics and provide recommended practices. Pls check it out!

Providence is one of 9 research sites that showed a more effective way of detecting a hallmark of #Alzheimers in PET scans, thanks to work by Dr. @hwamee_oh. @BrownandProv
Could detecting a protein called tau help speed the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease?
A researcher from @BrownPsychiatry is leading the Rhode Island team in a multi-city study exploring how tracking tau buildup in the brain could help identify Alzheimer’s earlier.
