We are proud to share our latest study published in Science. After achieving efficient and clinical feasible microglia replacement for the first time in 2020 (PMID: 32783928), we applied this strategy to treat a severe and fatal neurological disease, ALSP, and observed remarkable therapeutic effects—not only in the mouse model, but also in clinical trials involving 8 individuals with ALSP and up to 24 months of follow-up. This marks the first-in-human clinical application of microglia replacement therapy and suggesting its therapeutic effects in more neurological diseases.

I am heartbroken to hear about the wildfires in Alberta, a place I called home for three years and love deeply. Seeing Jasper, a city so close to my heart, burning down is devastating. I can't imagine what everyone there is going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

[Monique Almeida @MoniqueMarylin]

@NathanASmith1 @URochester_SMD You are such an inspiration!

Neuroscience has long been fascinated by the brain's complexity. one of its most intriguing aspects, degeneracy, remains a relatively obscure concept. Recently, Dr. Christophe Bernard explored degeneracy as a fundamental principle in neuroscience.

Let's explain this conundrum.

I am thrilled to share our lab's latest work documenting sex-differences (SD) in P2RY12's regulation of microglial morphology, synapse density and locomotory behavior. This work is our lab's first dive (of hopefully many)into microglial SD led by @OJ_uweru https://t.co/qdTfHBjcO1
