📢 New webinar coming soon 📢
Prof. Renzo Mancuso from VIB Center for Molecular Neurology will be our next speaker. Check all the information in the flyer and add it to your calendar! MINDlab

When the MIND lab goes to conferences…. We play bingo! 😆 #glia2023 MINDlab VIB Center for Molecular Neurology
Thanks for organizing this Jessie and Alma!

We are looking for a talented postdoc to work on a joint project with Renzo Mancuso's lab (MINDlab) on microglia-synapse interactions in neurodegenerative disorders:

This week we celebrated the master thesis defense of Laura Lauralvarezmendez (my first student ever) investigating microglia and astrocytes at the single-cell level!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Laura you have grown into a very skilled scientist! Wishing you the best in your career.MINDlab @CMN_V

MINDlab so excited talk!! Congratulations! International Society for Neurochemistry (ISN) #isnapsn2022

A conspicuous commonality between accelerated aging and tauopathy is the emergence of microglia high in calprotectin responding to ensuing brain inflammation. Product of collab with MINDlab and JD Pita-Almenar & constructive dialogue with Aging Cell

A busy time visiting MINDlab lab today UAntwerpen so didn’t get any pictures. Just this one of the hospital cafeteria serving beer! Only in Belgium?! Thanks to everyone for hosting me and letting me talk to you about alpha-synuclein ☺️😁

Happy to welcome Fondation Recherche Alzheimer in Antwerp today! They are here to interview the 2020 laureate of the European Young Investigator Grand Prix for Alzheimer's research: MINDlab!

Excellent talk by MINDlab about how humanized systems can help us to better understand how human microglia respond to brain pathology.
Beautiful work! Congratulations to all team 🎉🥳

The second FKNE/BSN session at #BSN_2023 with MINDlab Humanised models to study human microglia ontogeny and their role in disease. Inbal Goshen Astrocytes in high brain function. Tom McWilliams 🇺🇦 Deciphering physiological autophagy in neural space and time. FENS Kavli Network

Group leader MINDlab and future group leader Emanuela Pasciuto talk about the effects of neuroinflammation on Alzheimer's Disease. #StichtingAlzheimerOnderzoek

CMN represent at the Belgian Alzheimer Young Researcher Symposium 💪 !

Was a pleasure to take part in the #AAICNeuro Scientific Session on Microglia in Alzheimer's Disease: Friend or Foe? Thanks to my fellow panelists MINDlab Adrian Oblak Oleg Butovsky and the moderators Mychael Lourenco and Andreia Rocha for a great discussion.

The coolest VIB Center for Molecular Neurology crew made it to beautiful Lisbon to represent no less than 3 labs at #ADPD2024 Let’s do this! 💪🏼MINDlab RosaRademakersLab Sleegers Lab 🧬🧠🧪👩‍🔬

👏 Congratulations to Renzo Mancuso (MINDlab) for obtaining an
European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant! His team will investigate microglia-neuron interactions in human Alzheimer's disease. #VIBNeuroscience

I might be biased as besides being fantastic scientists, these people are awesome humans, but I’m so absolutely proud of the work done by Anna Martínez Nicola Fattorelli MINDlab 🧠 PS. Still a neuron lover over here, but ok, microglia is cool too 😎 #ADPD2024

Had a blast presenting my poster in the #isnapsn2022 ! Discussing with BrainEnergyMetabolism, MINDlab, Marina García Macia, Prof. Dringen, to mention but a few, was an exceptional way to expand my knowledge and improving my work.. Mahalo, International Society for Neurochemistry (ISN) 🙏🏼

Time to introduce you to Gonzalo. Gonzalo is a doing a shared PhD in our and MINDlab's lab researching the combinatorial effect of GWAS hits on the role of microglia in the development of AD.

Multi-pronged is our new favorite word! AD genetics is complex, and so is human microglia reaction to amyloid.
