The world's energy and food supply chains are closely interlinked, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine is exacerbating a food crisis that was already under way
Check out our new commentary exploring some of these dynamics➡️https://t.co/pY19MdajR4
🧠 Which brain cell types are connected, and what do those connections look like? 🤔 Recording from multiple live neurons simultaneously — our researchers mapped thousands of cortical connections to find out. 🧵 1 https://t.co/UVL6P2m5eI
This @nytimes article cites a recent air pollution study out of @ucdavis from PTX faculty member Dr. Pamela Lein and PTX alum Kelley Patten @kelpatten. Congratulations @lein_lab_ucd! We're very proud! https://t.co/sBr2hblybX
Such an honor to have our work on air pollution and Alzheimer’s chosen as one of the Editor’s choice papers from 2021! Thanks @EHPonline! And congrats to the rest of this phenomenal team @UCDavisAQRC@lein_lab_ucd@UCDavisEHSC https://t.co/U20v3L9LAq
A historic moment in the world of molecular structural research. #AlphaFold structure predictions for 22 species made freely available by @deepmind, access through @uniprot and @PDBeurope. Learn more at https://t.co/CFOFytruww
🧵: Of the arguments put forward for turning down a jab, the most difficult to challenge is ‘there isn’t any long term safety data’. It’s used by anti-vaxxers, but also strikes me as a valid concern for vaccine hesitant people caught up in the Covid-19 info grinder.
Immune protein's role in the brain: @VilledaLab &co identify a non-canonical role for the classical MHC class I molecule H2-Kb as a negative regulator of neural stem & progenitor cell proliferation, independent of its immune system function #PLOSBiology https://t.co/5JplXPvew1
Our new study in @EHPonline is out! We showed that chronic exposure to air pollution within regulatory limits exacerbates and accelerates Alzheimer’s phenotypes in rats
On behalf of the entire #COVaRiPAD team, we are thrilled to announce our preprint reporting humoral responses after BOTH doses of mRNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vax in 133 pts w/ chronic inflammatory diseases (CID) and 53 immunocompetent controls: https://t.co/s6a3J1bKGZ.

Selective removal of astrocytic APOE4 strongly protects against tau-mediated neurodegeneration and decreases synaptic phagocytosis by microglia https://t.co/Ak0BSN4MAW Congrats to Chao Wang and all our colleagues showing a key role for astroctye-derived apoE4 in degeneration
Accounting for sex as a biological variable (#SABV) is key to better science & better health for all. Since its implementation in 2016, the @NIH SABV policy has resulted in more rigorous science & more complete & reproducible research data.
I’m super excited to share what I’ve been working on for the last three years: a new deep learning algorithm to accurately identify cells in imaging data! Our method works across image platforms, tissue types, and species with no fine-tuning required. 🧵
