This week on Monday my PhD student @JohannaSchaff successfully defended her thesis work! In the midst of everything she rememberd to get a gift for me. Thank you Johanna for 4 wonderful years. I wish you success in your future endeavors!

The longer people are in academia, the more they realize that when reading papers it's best to ignore Intro, Discussion etc. and just look at Methods and Results

In our recent study https://t.co/4DXaIOVwNc, in addition to vascular changes in brains of Xpr1 +/- mice, we also observed “dark microglia” and microglia with fibrillar inclusions. What are these microglia doing – yet to figure out...#microglia #pathology

Recent work from our lab spearheaded by talented @UpasanaMaheshw3
XPR1 is the only known mammalian phosphate exporter and its LOF in humans leads to a neurological disease.

A wonderful opportunity to present our latest work at #CVB2023.
Big thanks to @SSMVR_Swiss for awarding travel grant to attend it.

Models of human #pericytes at the Anatomy Institut in Bern built in 1914 by Zimmermann. Magnification 6000x 🤩.

@AxL_Montagne @AudreyChagnot 😆 Fun, fun!

We are hiring a postdoctoral fellow to study mechanisms of brain microvascular dysfunction in aging and Alzheimer’s disease, using state-of-the-art in vivo multiphoton microscopy and transgenic mouse models. https://t.co/SWtY9ebUSQ. More about the lab: https://t.co/YjAywlRuMO

Thank you @JillStobart and Bruno Weber's lab! 🍾🥂

[Christian Staehr @ChrStaehr]

Very inspiring session at #Europhysiology2022 about 🧠 capillary pericytes this morning; #pericyte interaction with other cell types, #mechanosensing, role in #aging, and much more!

Honoured to receive International Prize from the Hayek Foundation together with my Latvian and Lithuanian colleagues for defending European democratic values.

Said in my speech that defending European democratic values is as topical today as back when we built up Estonia. 1/8

On Feb 24 when ���🇪 celebrated the 104th #IndependenceDay 🇷🇺 attacked 🇺🇦. I could see that my science collegues in 🇪🇺 did not immediately grasp the danger of it. Today, 🇪🇪 celebrated the #VictoryDay and 🇪🇺 accepted 🇺🇦 application to join the union. #Liberty

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Today is a good day for Europe.

Congratulations to President @ZelenskyyUA President @Sandumaiamd and Prime Minister @GharibashviliGe

Your countries are part of our European family.

And today’s historic decision by Leaders confirms that.

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

History has been made. I'm glad that #EUCO has used the momentum and decided to give #Ukraine #EU candidate status.
This confirms Ukraine’s rightful position in Europe. They’re fighting for the freedoms and values EU is founded on.

[Michael MacKay @mhmck]

Kyiv was founded in 482.

In 1147, the Grand Duke of Kyiv and ruler of the Kyivan Rus’, Yuriy Dolhoruky, issued a decree founding Moscow.

In 2022, Kyiv City Council rescinded this decree, saying it was due to a “historical misunderstanding.”

Moscow no longer exists.

[Marko Mihkelson 🇪🇪🇺🇦🇪🇺 @markomihkelson]

I really can not decode Macron's and Scholz's behaviour. Are they really afraid of the new Europe emerging from this brutal war? If this is true they are heading towards strategic defeat without any strategic autonomy. Luckily Ukrainians will have the last word to say.

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

Reaffirmed to @SwedishPM: Estonia supports Sweden's fast accession to NATO in every way.

Ukraine is one of us and needs hope - so we must discuss conditions for 🇺🇦 becoming EU candidate country soon.

Also spoke about deeper Baltic Sea region integration and climate cooperation.

"Other people are there to be colonized. Russia is innocent because of its ancient past. The existence of Ukraine is an international conspiracy. War is the answer."
Russia, says @TimothyDSnyder, meets the definition of fascism

@gukoxx Congratulations! 👏

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

Estonia's humanitarian and military assistance to Ukraine so far amounts to 0.8% of our GDP.

But we must all do more. Until Ukraine has not won, we haven't done enough.

Our deeds speak louder than words. #ArmUkraineNow

Irpin.
Less than two months ago, all these Ukrainians were alive.
This is what genocide looks like.
