Three poster presentations at the symposium of the Tom Wahlig Foundation from our team at the @DEF_Lab_HMS by @JEAlecu, Cedric Böger and myself on our research at @BostonChildrens/@harvardmed.
It was inspiring to learn about interdisciplinary advances in rare disease research.

Back in Boston after 2 amazing weeks at Manchester learning Proteomics from @Alex_Doune as part of my project @DEF_Lab_HMS. So grateful to Alex for teaching me and to @Boehringer MD Fellowship for funding my stay. Still in awe of the exciting research and the enchanting city.

I am so grateful to be part of this amazing team. The last year at @DEF_Lab_HMS @BostonChildrens has been the most incredible experience. Can't wait to see what the team will achieve in 2024!

[Ebrahimi-Fakhari_Lab @DEF_Lab_HMS]

Happy holidays from all of us @DEF_Lab_HMS @BostonChildrens @FMKirbyNeuro - really blessed to work with this amazing, dedicated and talented group of people & friends of the lab. A lot achieved in 2023 and excited for 2024! #neurogenetics #raredisease #movementdisorders

[Darius Ebrahimi-Fakhari @DariusFakhari]

Very exciting day at the @NIH @NIHClinicalCntr with wonderful collaborators @NIH_NINDS planning the next steps for clinical trials in #raredisease #movementdisorders #neurogenetics. Together we can achieve great things! @SpasticWorld @LillyandBlair @CureSPG50 @DEF_Lab_HMS

Heartfelt thanks to @DEF_Lab_HMS for the chance to participate in the @FMKirbyNeuro Retreat to present a poster on small molecule screening platforms for HSP. It was a joy to share our lab's research and learn from the brilliant minds in the field. Truly inspiring, thank you!🤩

[Vicente Quiroz @VicenteQuirozSM]

@DariusFakhari giving an amazing talk AT XL SOPNIA Congress, teaching Chilean pediatric neurologists about how to conduct research in rare diseases, clinical trial readiness and the devolopment of new therapeutic approaches for AP-4 related HSP!

This concludes summer internship season @DEF_Lab_HMS @FMKirbyNeuro @BostonChildrens. Thank you Akshitha from @UMassAmherst for being an amazing team member & for learning in vivo experiments in record time! We are proud of your work & hope you become physician/scientist one day!

[Ebrahimi-Fakhari_Lab @DEF_Lab_HMS]

Very proud of what master student Cedric Boeger achieved @FMKirbyNeuro @BostonChildrens @DariusFakhari. He will continue his work on #neurodegeneration as a PhD student @DZNE_en. The boxing gloves are a testament to his exceptional skills at introducing CRISPR knockouts (K.O.!)!

[Ebrahimi-Fakhari_Lab @DEF_Lab_HMS]

To new beginnings @BostonChildrens @FMKirbyNeuro @harvardmed Exciting times ahead! Upwards and onwards. #neurogenetics #movementdisorders #raredisease
