  • 2025 - Research.com Best Female Scientists Award
  • 2023 - Research.com Medicine in Sweden Leader Award

Overview

Laura Fratiglioni is affiliated with the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, contributing extensively to research in the field of Medicine. Their work encompasses a range of subfields including Psychiatry and Mental Health, Health, General Health Professions, Physiology, and Geriatrics and Gerontology.

The primary research focus centers on dementia and cognitive impairment, with significant attention to related areas such as health disparities and outcomes, frailty in older adults, chronic disease management strategies, nutritional studies and diet, health systems, economic evaluations, quality of life, and geriatric care and nursing homes.

Some recent publications highlight various aspects of cognitive health and aging:

  • Education and Cognitive Functioning Across the Life Span, 2020, Gothic.net
  • The impact of diabetes on cognitive impairment and its progression to dementia, 2021, Alzheimer s & Dementia
  • Prevention of dementia in an ageing world: Evidence and biological rationale, 2020, Ageing Research Reviews
  • Twelve-year clinical trajectories of multimorbidity in a population of older adults, 2020, Nature Communications
  • Multimorbidity burden and dementia risk in older adults: The role of inflammation and genetics, 2021, Alzheimer s & Dementia

Frequent collaborators in their research include the following coauthors:

  • Davide Liborio Vetrano
  • Giulia Grande
  • Amaia Calderón-Larrañaga
  • Erika J. Laukka
  • Debora Rizzuto

The main venues where their research is published reflect their focus on aging and dementia-related topics:

  • Alzheimer s & Dementia
  • The Journals of Gerontology Series A
  • Innovation in Aging
  • Age and Ageing
  • Aging

Their contributions to medicine cover a broad range of issues relevant to aging populations, including clinical trajectories of multimorbidity and the biological mechanisms underlying dementia risk, with a substantial record of publications over the years. This body of work addresses both biological and systemic dimensions of health in older adults.
