New paper from @poppyosmith reports the production of #EngineeredNeuralTissue using a new automated manufacturing approach. This tissue engineering technology was used to make nerve repair constructs containing stable aligned endothelial cell structures. https://t.co/4fBRhzFxpf

Interested in a PhD in neuroscience? Keen to understand more about dopaminergic projections with relevance to #Parkison's ? We're looking for a motivated researcher to explore claustral function in the healthy and PD brain 👍

🚨 Sign up now! 🚨 @UCL_NerveEng Nerve Injury community Day (FREE) is soon 18th November 2023. A day for those living with nerve injury. https://t.co/0euUVWXfCL.

[Tom Quick @TJQPNI]

Nerve nerds, wouldn’t it be great to have a biomarker for nerve injury. Like troponin or amylase but to assess axonopathy? This from @UCL_NerveEng @mattwilcox05 @PhillipsLab @PNIResearchUnit @hoopoe_swana may be an answer - our human trial is underway https://t.co/K0Qjm4CpHM

[Rebecca Shipley @rebeccajshipley]

Our latest paper out in @RSocPublishing Interface develops maths models and Bayesian inference with experimental data to compare the behaviour of different therapeutic cells for repairing nerves. Congrats to first author Maxime!

Many congratulations to these brilliant scientists on their graduation @UCLLifeSciences. Such a pleasure to have been part of their MRes and PhD research journeys @School_Pharmacy @UCL_NerveEng

[Emily Atkinson @EmilyAAtkinson]

My first first-author review is out now! Here, we explore the potential of growth factor mimetics for the treatment of traumatic brain injury.

Hugely grateful to @rachael_dickman for writing this with me and for her unwavering support!

[James Phillips @PhillipsLab]

Excellent new review from @EmilyAAtkinson and @rachael_dickman

[Rachael Dickman @rachael_dickman]

Very proud of this review I wrote with my very talented PhD student @EmilyAAtkinson! Just published in Bioorganic and Medicinal Chemistry. We think peptide mimetics should be used to treat traumatic brain injury - hopefully after reading you agree! https://t.co/kMWcTWC4hE
