@taramcallister.bsky.social I'll try to figure out how to turn this into a feed too.

Excited to share that our lab’s paper is the cover story for the Nov issue of Cell Stem Cell, featured alongside a study from Ionescu, Nicaise et al.! 🌟 We show how iPSC-derived astrocytes and oligodendrocytes reveal glial-intrinsic immune phenotypes in MS #glia #stemcells 🧪 tinyurl.com/msglia

The image shows a scientist holding a petri dish with a neuron showing deteriorated myelin, symbolizing MS, while stem cells float around, highlighting their critical role in potential therapies. Cover art by DrawImpacts.

some great starter packs for the #glia, #astrocyte, #oligodendrocyte, #microglia, #neuro researcher: gliasky, astrocytesky, microglia
But if you also like interactions between celltypes, please help this starter pack get started. Maybe someone can connect all of us in a feed?

On-demand blood flow increases are essential for brain health, but how flow recovers is unclear. Here, the authors show that brain perfusion triggers vascular Piezo1-mediated mechano-feedback that pro...

It totally is! I went to their meeting in Berlin in 2023 and walked away with a wealth of knowledge and a collaboration that's leading to a publication. I highly recommend this meeting to anyone with an interest in glial cells.
