A wonderful close to#AIGS2026!! Three days of spectacular talks on glial cells, inspiring discussions and great moments with the students.
Huge thanks to all the speakers!!!
Grateful to @pie_upvehu@AchucarroGlia@upvehu and @walkonproject for their support!!
See you in 2028...
Minisimposium on #ASD: genetics, molecular mechanisms, circuits and behaviour. Organized by @UPV/EHU and @AchucarroGlia. Join us!!! Speakers and details below.
Stay tuned for the 3rd edition of the Achucarro International Glia School #AIGS2026, organized by @AchucarroGlia and @upvehu at the @pie_upvehu in the magnificent Bay of Plentzia, just minutes from Bilbao. 🧠🔬
Registration opens in March!
Paper out! We found that myelin debris is not just waste: oligodendrocytes can engulf it, rewire their lipid metabolism, and receive signals that drive proliferation, differentiation and new myelin formation

New article from the lab online now:
"Internalization of Exogenous Myelin by Oligodendroglia Promotes Lineage Progression"
Congrats Carla Peiro and corresponding authors @LabDomercq and @MatuteC_ and thanks to collaborator Rafael Almeida (Edinburgh).

Today we received at @AchucarroGlia Prof. Dr. Hilmar Bading, from Heidelberg. A refreshening flashback to our studies on excitotoxicity through extrasynaptic NMDARs back in 2014, a work by @LabDomercq and @SoriaFN (PhD student back then) heavily inspired by Dr. Bading's work.
📢Our latest study, now published in @NatureMedicine , explores the potential of blood biomarkers on an automated platform to detect #Alzheimers . Plasma p-tau217 showed remarkable accuracy, with AUCs ranging from 0.93-0.96! 🩸🧠
