We are looking to hire a postdoc! Opportunities to use innovative techniques to address fundamental questions about neuron-glial interactions in the developing brain. Candidates from broad scientific backgrounds encouraged to join our team! Please RT 😀 https://t.co/pzy02q5A67
Neurodevelopment is such a fun field because so much is new to explore and define. But also that means it can be unclear. In our new review out this week @TrendsNeuro, we try to synthesize the confusing field of neural intermediate progenitors https://t.co/xrE9lEJSz9
We also discuss a bit about how these progenitors can be defined, and the molecular signatures that label them as well as drive their differentiation trajectories.
There's so much more packed into this work, so please check it out as we continue to investigate these questions!!! This is all possible because of an amazing scientific collaborative team at @EmoryGenetics, @BrainOrg_Hub, and our funders at @NIH.
Not here often, but came to share science! New work from our team out today @NeuroCellPress , led by the incredible Dr. Emily Hill. Including some exciting additions from our prepint. Thread below! https://t.co/dRQvESiGG8
We think there are important implications here. Can astrocyte reactivity be reversed in the setting of neurologic disease? Why do astrocytes present peptides via MHCII? Is this pro- or anti-inflammatory for T-cells???
New lab preprint led by incredibly talented postdoc Maureen Sampson. Full thread at 🦋! https://t.co/KmLogWtu5E In the US, approximately 2.5% of pregnant women exhibit high blood Lead (Pb) levels (!!!) What is the consequence of this on the developing human brain?
