Excited to share a preprint from my PhD investigating #EV mediated epigenetic regulation of catecholaminergic signalling. Big thanks to everyone involved.

For those who couldn’t attend the 7 hr FDA meeting, this sums it up well. It was long, fractious and emotional. The advisory board did not like the degree of collaboration bt fda & BIOGEN or the stats & clinical FDA disconnect. #aducanumab #biogen https://t.co/TBRVZEugjO

That annoying dependency children seem to have on food.

[Ben Bradley @Ben_Bradley_32]

Gov has lots of responsibilities: supporting the vulnerable, helping people to help themselves, balancing the books. Not as simple as you to make out Marcus. Extending FSM to sch hols passes responsibility for feeding kids away from parents, to the State. It increases dependency.

@stevens1lab @jonykipnis But your microglia might not have enough time to do all their gardening!

[Ellie Tedford @tedersby]

Unequal effects in women, those with children and bench scientists. I might cynical but it’s difficult to imagine funders will consider this in future.

@Marta_Shahbazi I don’t think they have noggin lines but this paper from @pwburridge has some really interesting cost cutting for iPSC cultures https://t.co/K0ylirodO3

[Kristophe Diaz, PhD @KristopheDiaz]

Join us this Friday 11AM - 12PM ET for our 1st @CurePSP
Ask the Scientist

Dr. Butler, from @NeuralStemCells will tell us about #Intrabodies & how they bring new therapeutic approaches to Tauopathies.

Science is political and racism is embedded within it. We want to see change and that’s why we stand with all our Black colleagues and friends. #BlackLivesMatter

We know some people are looking for ways to help. Here are some starting points. ⏬

BREAKING: Whitehall sources tell me @PHE_uk review into BAME ppl disproportionately being affected by #COVID19 is delayed for 2nd time because No 10 is “worried about current global events”. They say it’s in “too close proximity” to the #BlackLivesMatterUK protests. More @SkyNews

Thanks to our favourite Italian doctor @giorgino83 for educating us about covid-19 today! We appreciate all your hard work ❤️🇮🇹

We've been quiet as we get settled for home-working but thanks to @nature here are "Seven tips to manage your mental health and well-being during the COVID-19 outbreak" https://t.co/c9NgyuR6gJ

Yesterday we had a great discussion about α-synuclein in iPSCs / how expression may influence seeding, a DOUBLE journal club feature! Articles here: https://t.co/2pSJf21EN9 & here: https://t.co/ASBVy7FWV9

@KennethWWitwer @tomdriedonks @LabWitwer @UCSF @UCSFPathology @exRNA @HopkinsMedNews @JohnsHopkins Such a shame, that was shaping up to be a really interesting discussion. Hopefully we will hear the end of the story soon.

@wjsullivan @netflix Toxo might cause slightly altered behaviours in some susceptible people but some countries (Eg France and Germany) almost half of all people are estimated to have a chronic infection and female murders are hardly rampant. You can associate toxo with almost any behaviour.
