I had the honor and blessing to present my Ph.D. work, under the mentorship of Dr. Benjamin Martin, at #2025SDB #2025ICDB that took place in beautiful Puerto Rico.
As a first time attendee, I am endlessly thankful for this opportunity to network and showcase my hard work!

Synaptic pruning - a fascinating process in the 🧠 and a great example of the intricate relationship between #neurons and #microglia! Strengthening circuits and removing redundant synapses: underdo it and you can have autism; overdo it and you can develop schizophrenia. #Science
