The #Austrian gov. plans to cut university funding (2028–2030) by ~-6%. Inflation heads to ~+4%. Our world & AT is changing ever faster (technology, society, the planet). To adapt, we need more education & research. #UnisRetten

😶‍🌫️🤩 It's out!
So happy to share a big piece of my PhD work with the world. 🧩

Using human neural #organoids, we investigated corpus callosum agenesis, a disconnection between the two #brain hemispheres. 🧠

What we found was surprising and exciting... Curious? 📃 👇

@catarinacsmc @LeoOtsuki Congratulations, beautiful work!

How does in-vitro stress influence #brain #organoids? What cell types are affected, and how can we deal with stressed cells? Our new work now published in @embojournal provides answers! https://t.co/qnWSYj6ytH 1/3

My great honour to name novel master regulator of immune cell metabolism and invasion after "Atossa" a Persian queen, whom connected to my background.

@SciPaulie @Knoblich_lab Thanks, it's online: https://t.co/ueoDXyhpSL (let's say it's in beta :-) )
About mouse: you may need to find the right stress-GO-terms. It is not because of the organism, but the many varieties of stress that exists! Good luck & let me know if u need help!

[vertesy @vertesy]

@harschnitz @Knoblich_lab @OEichmueller Thank you :-)

[vertesy @vertesy]

@Knoblich_lab Our preprint with @OEichmueller & Julia Naas is out :-), looking forward for your comments!

[vertesy @vertesy]

@alon_douek @Knoblich_lab Thank you! Stress comes in many flavors. If it's exactly the same, it will catch them. Also, you can change the GO-terms & gene-sets to isolate a disease phenotype, we did a similar step in Fig.EV3, by 'unselecting' a secretory cell type with high physiological ER-stress.

[The Knoblich Lab @Knoblich_lab]

1/6 Stress in #brain #organoids is widely debated: Are all organoids & all cells affected? Does it exist in vivo? Does it impair cell differentiation? Gruffi, our new algorithm identifies and removes stressed cells from #scRNAseq #singlecell datasets. https://t.co/ewLtAZVsT4

[The Knoblich Lab @Knoblich_lab]

How are rare brain tumors and cortical malformations connected & how can organoids help us to find the link? We set out to investigate tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and came across an unexpected cell type – see how we did it in this thread! (1/10) https://t.co/s5wy917NGU
