Brain cancer leverages the same tools as the developing brain 🧠! In our new study, published today in @Nature, we mapped neocortical development to explore brain cancer and neuropsychiatric risks. #stemcells #brainresearch

✅it out! Immune cells (#microglia) shape angiogenesis in the developing brain 🧠 and with infection, can lead to #germinalmatrixhemorrhage. Proud of lead author @JiapeiChen @UCSFGradDiv who drove this story from the start and I got to watch her grow.

@Mariatclarke Congrats, Maria!

[Elizabeth Crouch, MD/PhD @ElizabetsCrouch]

Posters, talks, questions, and gorgeous views. 🎙️🌊❓A small group of the lab enjoyed our first time participating in the #ucsfcvri retreat in #SantaCruz @UCSFPediatrics @EdwardV_MSc

[Elizabeth Crouch, MD/PhD @ElizabetsCrouch]

It’s out! Our #vascularcentric perspective on #autism spectrum disorders. 🧠The punchline 🤩: “It is essential to shift the neuronal point of view in ASD and other NDD to include vascular and metabolic features.” @vcoelhosantos @UCSFstemcell https://t.co/Z2Cz4rmagZ

[Edward Valenzuela, MSc @EdwardV_MSc]

@ElizabetsCrouch Thanks Dr. Crouch!!! All thanks to my mentor really 👍

[Elizabeth Crouch, MD/PhD @ElizabetsCrouch]

Excited to announce our collab @nicupodcast #atthebench. @mistygoodlab, Dr. David McCulley & I will interview #physicianscientists in #neonatology 🧫🧬🔬👀I was the Guinea pig for our 1st episode. ✅it out! @NeoTECaN @UCSFPediatrics @UCSFstemcell https://t.co/3YqQlIT4EP

Dia de los Muertos Celebration! 🎉 Sugar skulls made from scratch by @EdwardV_MSc in @ElizabetsCrouch Lab and decorated by our Pod A scientists 🎊

[Edward Valenzuela, MSc @EdwardV_MSc]

I'm always reminded of how fortunate I am to be a member of the #CrouchLab. Had an amazing day at the #NBRI retreat at #UCSF!

[Edward Valenzuela, MSc @EdwardV_MSc]

Opened up my email to find a pleasant surprise! Calling out all former CIRM trainees to join the @CIRMnews trainee alumni network. https://t.co/27L1ZjpdMQ

[Edward Valenzuela, MSc @EdwardV_MSc]

@CIRMnews The funding opportunities y'all provided put me in a position I never thought was attainable. I'm forever blessed and grateful.

@Mr_SebasG Hanging out with y'all was definitely a highlight. Proud of y'all too. Y'all have accomplished a lot more than I have.

[Edward Valenzuela, MSc @EdwardV_MSc]

I'd like to thank my family, mentors from @LonzaGroup, advisors from @SFStateBIO, @CIRMnews, PI @ElizabetsCrouch, and my wonderful team @UCSFstemcell for the guidance, support, and tools necessary to obtain my master's in biomedical science-stem cell science. That PhD is next!
