Check out our new study published in @CellCellPress.

[Abed A. Mansour @mansour_abed_A]

Very happy and excited to share our paper @CellCellPress. In brief, we developed a human-based, stem cell-derived brain organoid in vivo system for studying neuroinflammatory mechanisms in health and disease @salkinstitute @Hujimed @MedNeuroHUJI https://t.co/VQqIlvqeDV

New preprint from the lab! We discovered transient fluidization in the basal region of human forebrains by tracking microdroplets in cerebral organoids.This “basal fluidization”, absent in gorilla and mouse, may contribute to surface expansion in humans 1/

In a new set of experiments, we screened a panel of rare and common variants from patients with Autism and identified variants in enhancers of OTX2 & Mir9-2 that reproducibly alter their activity in vivo! Huge congrats to @ewholling

Excited and relieved to share with you our microglia-sufficient brain organoid work just online @Nature https://t.co/cCVFTUqq4h
IPSC-derived microglia reprogram them metabolically! And make them mature faster!

I am excited to show you these beautiful movies! A great effort together with @TweetPetrStrnad at @ViventisMicro to design a new #lightsheet for long term high throughput live imaging of large specimens #organoids, #embryoids and entire animals #hydra. https://t.co/gYPt7ehQ0w

Programmable RNA-guided DNA endonucleases are widespread in eukaryotes and their viruses

[Omar Abudayyeh @omarabudayyeh]

We’ve always wondered if there was something beyond CRISPR for genome editing. We now report that animals, plants, fungi and viruses have troves of programmable nucleases capable of efficient gene editing in human cells

An update on our Fanzor work!
