INTRODUCTION The pace of innovation has accelerated in virtually every area of tau research in just the past few years. METHODS In February 2022, leading international tau experts convened to share selected highlights of this work during Tau 2022, the second international tau conference co‐organized and co‐sponsored by the Alzheimer's Association, CurePSP, and the Rainwater Charitable Foundation. RESULTS Representing academia, industry, and the philanthropic sector, presenters joined more than 1700 registered attendees from 59 countries, spanning six continents, to share recent advances and exciting new directions in tau research. DISCUSSION The virtual meeting provided an opportunity to foster cross‐sector collaboration and partnerships as well as a forum for updating colleagues on research‐advancing tools and programs that are steadily moving the field forward.
