  • UTIs, Delirium and Cognitive Decline with Drs. Julie Moreno and Amanda Latham

    UTIs, Delirium and Cognitive Decline with Drs. Julie Moreno and Amanda Latham
    Jul 2 2024

    Assistant Professor Julie Moreno and recently graduated Ph.D. student Amanda Latham of CSU's Toxicology program join to discuss the surprising cognitive impacts of urinary tract infections. This episode explores how UTIs can lead to delirium and neurodegeneration, the role of the brain’s immune cells in this process, and why the Dunklin Hartley guinea pig is an ideal model for studies of the aging human brain. In spring 2023, Moreno’s lab received a pilot grant from the Center for Healthy Aging to conduct this research, and the preliminary results are shared today.

Boring

It is very boring and sounds like people having a conversation with themselves and it is futile.
