#Alzeimer disease is more common in women than men.

Often attributed to the fact that women tend to live longer, research shows the sex gap likely stems from a complex mix of biological and sociocultural factors.

This conflation has irked me for years. People seem to think DEI and health disparities are synonymous. While DEI efforts may help with issues such as wealth inequality & educational attainment, which may help shrink health disparities in the long run, these are essentially two separate issues!

🧂Our controlled feeding pilot trial suggests potential sex differences in kidney responses to dietary salt. With a high salt diet, females may increase endothelin-1 excretion more. Endothelin-1 is a potent vasoconstrictor peptide and promotes salt excretion by the kidneys.

Join me in donating to ABRCMS. For many of us early in our careers (and for many of us now), this is THE conference. Let’s make sure future generations get the same experience.

I was told if each poster judge donated $25, their goal would be quickly met, but I think we can do better! 🙏🏾💪🏾
