🎉New in Neuron! We identified that microglia-derived soluble DLK1 links aging to hypomyelination. In mouse and human iPSC models, telomere shortening drives microglial senescence, ↑sDLK1, and impaired oligodendrocyte maturation and neuronal activity. https://t.co/iNR0jS1xJa
Thrilled to share: we show that neuronal hyperactivity drives C1q-mediated synapse loss via brain-recruited B cell/IgM, showing unexpected neuroimmune crosstalk in adult brain. CONGRATS to @Ger_Crowley13 who led w/ resilience & creativity & whole team! https://t.co/5CyZUVcmFU
Excited to share our new #Neuron paper!
We profiled 3,085 mouse microglia using label-free single-cell proteomics, creating one of the largest single-cell proteome datasets of primary microglia to date.

Excited to share that I will be starting my independent lab at @Rutgers_NJMS@RutgersU this summer! The Zhang Lab will study Sensory Neuroimmunology - how the sensory nervous system regulates immunity, inflammation, and host-microbiota interactions at mucosal barriers.
In the past year, there’s been major progress in our understanding of how blood and lymphatic vasculature at the brain borders shape waste clearance and neuroimmune connections. Glad to highlight some of these advances for this series. https://t.co/VXItdZDs9E
📢📢My lab at @VanderbiltU is hiring! We are looking for passionate Postdoctoral Fellows and Research Assistants to join our team investigating somatosensory development and repair.
Please help me RT and share with your networks.
