Check out the most recent @PennNeuroKnow article, written by #NGG student Margaret Gardner! Margaret explains the hypotheses as to why ECT – induction of seizures under controlled conditions – paradoxically alleviates symptoms of schizophrenia #SciComm

Congratulations to lab member Emily Kurtyan on their Penn Grad Talk yesterday. Way to represent the @GrinspanLab and @KJSsci well #penngradtalks #upenn @PennLPS #chemicalsciences

[Marisa Adhikusuma Jeffries @marisaajeffries]

So excited about this new publication from the Lyons lab that reveals surviving oligodendrocytes can contribute to remyelination in the zebrafish, though newly-generated oligodendrocytes do so much more robustly! Congratulations @SarahNeely18, @lyons_lab.

How do axons pattern their nodes of Ranvier? Well, one way is by telling myelin where to stop growing. Latest work from our lab! Thanks to @dfg_public. Shout out to @St_Vagionitis and @Franzino4
