EMJ Podcast | Quickfire & Deep Dive
In this series, host Catherine Glass speaks with Rachel Buckley about how Alzheimer’s disease risk and progression differ between women and men. From advances in blood-based biomarkers and AI-driven models of brain resilience to the role of menopause, genetics, and lifestyle, the series explores how sex-specific biology is reshaping early detection and prevention strategies. It also examines whether personalised, sex-informed approaches could transform future Alzheimer’s care.
