Howell Lab

We use genetics and genomics to understand neurodegenerative diseases. We also use modern approaches to develop more predictive models for Alzheimer's disease.

Three is the magic number (for posters at #AAIC23)!

Visit Stacey Rizzo from the @RizzoLab to learn more about animal models for late onset #Alzheimers disease being developed by the @IndianaUniv @jacksonlab @PittTweet @Model_ad_alz Consortium #EndAlz

[Sarah Heuer, PhD @Heuerwego]

Phenomenal talk by @kateeeemily today at #AAIC23 exploring the glial influence on exacerbating ARIA in AD mouse models. Exciting findings and looking forward to seeing where this work goes!

[AD Knowledge Portal @AMPADPortal]

Stop by Posters 43 & 44 to chat with @MayoClinicNeuro’s Joseph Reddy and @jacksonlab’s Asli Uyar about their work using resources from the #Alzheimers Disease Knowledge Portal and @Model_ad_alz to help #EndAlz #AAIC23 @NIHAging

[Sarah Heuer, PhD @Heuerwego]

Headed off for a long travel day to Amsterdam for #AAIC23! Excited to be presenting so very cool work (with new data 🥳) that I’ve been working on with @ErikBloss and @garethhowell10! Make sure to come by my poster on Tuesday P3-012 to learn more!

[Gareth Howell @garethhowell10]

It will be drop the mike time for @cowabunga314 and I!

[Gareth Howell @garethhowell10]

Biggest contingent of @GHowell_Lab @jacksonlab at #AAIC23 ever! See presentations from @cowabunga314, @Heuerwego, Alaina Reagan, Olivia Marola and I. APOE, microglia and synapses, vascular health, toxic metals, the eye as a biomarker, and genetic diversity - something for all!

[Gareth Howell @garethhowell10]

Check out presentations by former @GHowell_Lab @jacksonlab members @kateeeemily and @Becca__Buchanan at #AAIC23. The Howell lab network spreads.

Check out AARF grant awardee Olivia Marola @GHowell_Lab @GHowell_Lab @jacksonlab poster (P2-029) on studying the role of the ANG/TIE2 in vascular health and ADRD using novel mouse models. #AAIC2023 #AAIC23 #EndAlz

[Gareth Howell @garethhowell10]

Introducing MODEL-EyeD at #AAIC2023 leveraging novel @Model_ad_alz and @GHowell_Lab mouse strains to evaluate the potential of the eye as and additional biomarker for AD. Poster P2-245.

[Howell Lab @GHowell_Lab]

Exciting to see the first fruit of a collaboration between the Howell lab and @ErikBloss! The interaction between microglia and synapses is thought to be important across the board, however, perhaps this is just the case for certain genetic contexts? Check it out!

[Sarah Heuer, PhD @Heuerwego]

SUPER excited to share a preprint reporting some cool work I've been doing with @ErikBloss and @garethhowell10 at @jacksonlab!
