Our new preprint!

"rejuvenation-by-replacement" might not work how we expect it to…

In short, we show the local brain environment drives microglia aging, with natural killer cells acting as an unexpected but necessary upstream player driving the age-dependent, stat1-mediated interferon response.

Do you LOVE organelles??
Well I am THRILLED to announce that Nellie has been published in @naturemethods.bsky.social!

Nellie a fully automated pipeline for organelle segmentation, tracking, and hierarchical feature extraction in 2D, 3D, timelapse, multichannel live-cell microscopy

We lack tools to rapidly track >1-2 changing signals in brain fluids. Peter Kalugin and an amazing team begin to address this challenge with simultaneous, real-time tracking of many (10+) neuromodulatory signals using Multiplexed Optical Recording of Sensors on a micro-Endoscope. Feedback welcome!

I’m thrilled to share our preprint presenting MORSE: a new way to simultaneously & quantitatively track patterns of neuromodulators/neuropeptides in vitro & in vivo using spatially multiplexed 3D imaging of 10+ green optical sensors on a microendoscope
