From MRI to Ozempic: breakthroughs that show why fundamental research must be protected
Nature - In these financially straitened times, funders must recognize that great discoveries often arise from work that was looking for something completely different.

Our Master student Abigail King just passed her viva with flying colours. During her stay, she cultured and differentiated hiPSC into microglia before analysing them using immunofluorescence stainings, and made excellent contributions to our lab. She is now looking for a PhD position in the UK.

The Autism Science Foundation just released a podcast where Dr. Alycia Halladay was joined by I and Dr. Michael Tranfaglia from the FRAXA Research Foundation. We discussed Fragile X syndrome and how microglia, the brain's immune cells, might be a key player in this disorder: lnkd.in/eZfKsHJw

I really enjoyed reading the early-career investigator commentary by Dr. Claudia Z. Han (WashU) on our recent paper in Biological Psychiatry: www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S000... . We are indeed planning to follow some of the further research directions that were suggested.
All Fired Up: Microglial Neuroinflammation in Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, has a
clear genetic cause in only 5% to 10% of cases. Variants in SNCA, which encodes α-synuclein,
are responsible for the ...
