Studies of microglia from a genetic CLN3 disease model indicate loss of the CLN3 protein impacts myelin turnover and lipid metabolism. Impairment to the neuroprotective function of microglia in CLN3 disease is implicated.

Had an enriching time at the "Symposium on Neuroimmune Mechanisms of Brain Development and Psychiatric Illness." Meeting Beth Stevens, a leader in microglial research, was a highlight! Excited to apply these insights!
