I'm so excited to have one of my photos selected as an "Image of Distinction" for the #NikonSmallWorld Imaging Competition! #microscopy #intestine #villi #FluorescenceFriday

People recovering from COVID-19 may suffer from significant brain function impacts, with the worst cases of the infection linked to mental decline equivalent to the brain ageing by 10 years, researchers warn reut.rs/2TwAeWs 1/5

One of our Beauty of the Brain winners Mouse Dorsal Root Ganglia Image by Daping Yang Isaac Chiu Lab Harvard Medical School "Sensory neurons mainly arise from dorsal root ganglia (DRG), which express abundant amounts of CGRP (green). This DRG was collected from a mouse infected...

Very lovely

Polar bears know that they have to be flat in order to exert less pressure on the thin ice🤩

Congratulations to Daping Yang and lab members on our recent work, now on the cover of Cell! Glad to have this work out and excited to continue studying how neurons regulate barrier function and #immunology in the #gut and other sites authors.elsevier.com/c/1fv-7L7PXiq8z

So excited to see our goblet cell image get selected for the cover. We also prepared a cartoon one, which is inspired by the battle of Thermopylae.

Hard work pays off! 🧪 🧫 📚 Congrats again Daping Yang Amanda Jacobson, Kimberly Meerschaert Liwen Deng and others!

Congrats to Felipe A Pinho Ribeiro and co-authors on our recent work, now out in nature! We show that pathogens talk directly to nociceptor neurons to hijack CGRP-RAMP1 signaling, and alter the course of bacterial meningitis. Well done everyone! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Excited to share our work out today in Neuron ! Congrats to Dylan Neel, MD PhD Himanish Basu and co-authors! We find the innate immune protein GSDME drives mito-damage and axon loss in neurons, and GSDME KO is protective in models of #ALS urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https…
