Our 2024 CSHL conference on human brain development and stem cell models is in full swing, with over 300 participants!

This year’s event features exciting new discoveries and dynamic discussions, driven largely by the energy & insights of trainees.

A privilege to organize this meeting with Guo-Li Ming @UPenn_SongMing!

Massive congratulations to Paola Arlotta for her election to the National Academy of Medicine today!!! https://t.co/bCtxTGp1g1

Excited to share TxGNN, a model that identifies potential therapies from existing medicines for thousands of diseases. Trained across 17,080 diseases, TxGNN predicts drug candidates for conditions with limited or no treatment options, including rare diseases

@NatureMedicine paper: https://t.co/TZcKGqjSba

Globally, there are over 7,000 rare and undiagnosed diseases, yet only 5 to 7 percent have treatments, leaving the majority untreated or undertreated. Even for more common diseases, new drugs could offer alternatives with fewer side effects or replace drugs that are ineffective for certain patients

TxGNN generates new insights on its own in the form of multi-hop interpretable rationales, applies them to diseases it was not trained for, and offers explanations for its predictions

Human evaluation showed that TxGNN's predictions perform well across multiple axes of performance

Many of TxGNN's predictions align with off-label prescriptions used in a large healthcare system

Many thanks to a fantastic research team @KexinHuang5 @payal_chandak @WangQianwenToo @_toolazyto_ @AkhilVaidMD @jure @girish_nadkarni @BenGlicksberg

[Fernando C. Alsina @alsina_fc]

I am thrilled to share that I have joined @StJudeResearch as a faculty member. The Alsina lab is now open and studies the molecular and cellular mechanisms of brain development in health and disease, with focus on RNA and cytoskeleton regulation.

Excited to share new work from our lab and @versp1 led by @MelissaACadena1! We're always thinking of ways to improve and customize organoid culture and differentiation. So we turned to 3D bioprinting to build tunable scaffolds for cortical organoids. https://t.co/RB4x2sEkoW

Latin America & the Caribbean are home to >8% of the world’s population, yet Hispanic people + people of LatAm ancestry comprise only 1.3% of all genomics data.

Also, super cool to participate in the ongoing "The People Behind the Papers" series in @developmentjournal.  Check it out here! https://t.co/dPzUswASpr

[Arlotta Lab @ArlottaLab]

Happy to share our latest work on microglia! We developed a comprehensive transcriptional atlas of microglia throughout cortical development and demonstrated that these cells are essential for cortical changes induced by in utero inflammation. Congratulations to all co-authors and collaborators @ostremlab, @NuriaIturza, @jeff_stogsdill, @FaitsTyler, @kwanho_k, @jzlevin !!! https://t.co/MJkiX0BBtL

How do we first come to know the world around us? My #neuroscience colleagues @UZH_en found that young mice exploring the world with touch build upon early impressions formed by smell, using neural pathways that exist only briefly in #development. https://t.co/mAi1VXwrEh
