Neurobiologist & Neurologist. My lab focuses on the biology of astrocytes/neurons & develops organoid disease models to study their role in neurodegeneration.
Beautiful work by @LakatosLab !!

With universities unable to afford them, clinical academics across the country are being offered redundancy.
These are the people who teach our doctors and conduct ground breaking research.
More must be done to support them.
Interested in #oligodendrocyte metabolism and/or #multiplesclerosis? Our paper is now at Biorxiv! We show that oligos expressย MCT2, the high affinity monocarboxylate transporter, well known for supplying neurons with astrocyte-derived lactate (astro-neuron lactate shuttle)๐
A Postdoctoral Research Associate post is available in the lab in Human Organoid Neurobiology and ALS/MND Research - see our job advert in Nature Careers
