We don’t want to FORCE you, but our very own @LudovicaGuetta is presenting her poster on how mechanical forces control astrocyte reactivity, shape and function ⚡️⚙️⭐️ and you really don’t want to miss it! Her poster is TODAY, T04-001B at #euroglia #glia2023 see you there!

[AstrocyteCafe @AstrocyteCafe]

#AstrocyteCafe first social gathering in Berlin was amazing.

THANKS TO EVERYONE who came and who supported @AstrocyteCafe during this past year.

[Ben Clarke @Ben_ClarkeUK]

At #Euroglia #glia2023 and interested in iPSC microglia and/or ALS? Even if the answer is no, come by my poster T05-010A this afternoon for a chat!

[The Serio Lab @theSeriousLab]

Ever wondered why astrocyte subtypes have such diverse & dynamic shapes? 🟢🟦🔶 and how this could impact their function? Come to my @sassyneurosci poster from 1:30pm TODAY to learn what I’ve found out about astrocyte shape-function relationships, T10-008A! #glia2023 #euroglia

[Doaa M Taha @DoaaMTaha2]

Very pleased to be at #glia2023, #gliameeting, if you want to know more about astrocyte reactivity and RNA binding proteins, come this afternoon to my poster T16-052A

[Shane Liddelow 🍊 @LiddelowSA]

@RickiePatani, GilesHardingham, and I wrote a review on astrocytes in neuroinflammation & neurodegeneration for @NatRevNeurol

lots still unknown, but it's clear combinatorial in vitro, in vivo, and cross-species approaches are needed moving forward

[Helen Devine @HelenDevine10]

You, me and some ipsc?

Super cool (I’m biased, but it is 😉), funded PhD project.

If you are interested/have questions/(especially if you) have your own ideas, I would love to hear from you.

At the Wellcome Centre for @MitoResearch

[PataniLab @PataniLab]

Our latest review just out in @Brain1878: 'The role of astrocytes in prion-like mechanisms of neurodegeneration'. Great effort by @PhillipSmethurs @neuroblonde @Ben_ClarkeUK and a great collaboration with Dr Katie Sidle. @PataniLab @TheCrick @UCLIoN @mndresearch @mndassoc #ALS

[Ben Clarke @Ben_ClarkeUK]

I'm dusting off the trainers and running the Paris marathon in April. Raising money for 2 fantastic charities: @mndassoc and @trinityhospice. See below for more details (1/3)

[Oscar Wilkins @OscarWilkins16]

Awesome to see our paper out in Nature today, with an accompanying News and Views article. We've added a load of new data since our BioRxiv paper, including some fancy Nanopore long read sequencing. Read it here: https://t.co/ssFXLwOzZK and here: https://t.co/toKHv9MWtY

[MND Research @PremiumXRemark]

🚨 New blog alert! 🚨

Head over to the blog to hear about the latest research on astrocytes in #MND/#ALS from the @PataniLab and @DoaaMTaha2. Including how astrocytes can look different from one person with MND to the next.
