New paper on data-driven progression subtypes in Alzheimer’s disease

Latest paper is an amazing collaboration led by the wonderful Jake Vogel that pulled together the largest database so far of tau PET imaging of Alzheimer’s pathology in the living brain, then unleashed Alex Young’s SuStaIn algorithm to discover four previously unknown/uncharacterised subtypes.

Ideal Gas Law works for soft crystals

Working with folk from my old stomping ground at the University of Liverpool, we discovered in the laboratory that a two-dimensional dusty plasma can be adequately described using the ideal gas law - even when shock waves are excited to melt the dust crystal.

I will present some results on dusty plasmas at this year’s American Physical Society March Meeting in Boston, USA.  My talk is scheduled for the High Pressure: Experiment session on Thursday March 1.  I’ll be talking about combining Rankine-Hugoniot shock relations and target tracking to derive an equation of state for a dusty plasma.
