Excited to share this work exploring the profile of senolytic CAR T cells in physiological aging. Great collaboration with Inés Fernández-Maestre, that started @MSKCC and bore fruit @amor_lab @CSHL

@hubermanlab The comments made me realize how many people don’t know the difference between protein, peptides and amino acids.

@BohacekLab @DayLabUAB @MarkCembrowski @JPablo_Neuro @JoeEcker Nice ! Go forth and conquer ! :)

@BohacekLab @DayLabUAB @MarkCembrowski @JPablo_Neuro @JoeEcker I haven’t tried that but in theory it should. It so shallow so I have avoided sn

[Dr. Kay Linker @kaylinker]

@DayLabUAB @BohacekLab @MarkCembrowski @JPablo_Neuro @JoeEcker Yes in my experience single cell is a terrible way to look at cell type percentages. MERFISH or other in situ preps are the way to go for that. To bias for glia without FACS you can use a 20-30 micron pore filter which filters out many neurons and increases your cell diversity

@hubermanlab Or use SciHub 🙊

[Dr. Kay Linker @kaylinker]

All models are wrong but some are useful. Picking a cell type and brain region that is congruent with humans is key to understanding age related cognitive decline. Investigating how astrocytes in the striatum change with age and their impact on behavior is a valid pursuit.

@trikomes @pmarca This graph is terrible for several reasons: 1. Where is the y axis label? Title helps a bit but needs clarity 2. Is this prescription per person per year or total ? 3. Where are the error bars? How am I supposed to be confident in a change per year if I don’t know the spread
