Our 2008 @MichaelJFoxOrg-funded discovery @UofAlabama of a gene in worms that protects dopamine neurons was a catalyst for an international team to reveal a new cause of #dystonia, #ataxia & #NeurodegenerativeDiseases; a testament to #evolution & collaboration. @dmrf @EmboMolMed

Happy Day! This was a lot of work (not the poster, the review article that comes with it)! Thanks to the fantastic editorial and production staff at @DMM_Journal for bringing this concept to fruition! Roll nucleotide! #Celegans @UaDeptBSC @wormbase @NINDSnews #neurodegeneration

Ah, the Stranger Things one runs into when advocating for Parkinson’s research funding in the US Senate cafeteria! #UA #MJFF #StrangerThings #Parkinsons #RollTide

Looking forward to discussing the urgency of prioritizing NIH funding for Parkinson’s on behalf of the @MichaelJFoxOrg with @SenShelby in person on Capitol Hill this Tuesday. Our lab @UA @UAGradSchool has 25 dedicated student researchers accelerating a path to a cure every day!
