@DaniBeckman Your confocal images are always incredible, Dr. Beckman! I’m a grad student working on AD and just getting started with confocal imaging myself. I’d love to learn from your expertise—your work truly inspires me!✨✨❤️
Astrocytes🔵 reacting to B-amyloid🟣 accumulation in the Human Neocortex. One of the hallmarks of #Alzheimers and other neurodegenerative conditions. What if viral infections increase the accumulation of these and other misfolded proteins in the brain? 🤔🔬#FluorescenceFriday
How a brain with #Alzheimer look in the microscope? Neurons are dying, and I literally see holes in the tissue, like below. You can see microglia🟡, brain immune cells, accumulating where tissue disappears (hippocampus & entorhinal cortex). Additional markers: Astrocyte🟣, pTau🔵
What do you think, can you graduate and get a PhD if you did everything right but didn't get any original results worth publishing? I have a feeling most people would say 'no', but in my opinion it's a 'yes'. Where would science be if we don't try things that can fail?
