We are recruiting! Looking for skilled bioinformatician eager to develop. To contribute to our neuroimmunology, neurovascular & neurodegeneration projects with Priller lab UK Dementia Research Institute Edinburgh Neuroscience using big data analysis (-omics, imaging, cytometry). elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

Immigrating to the UK (even temporarily) comes with a truly laughable price tag. For a 5-year visa, my human and I would now pay over £10,000 just for the health surcharge (not including the actual visa fees + associated costs)

Delighted to see this work led by Mike Daniels now published eLife - the journal. Cst7 one of most conserved genes altered in disease model-induced #microglia , deleting it does some interesting/unanticipated things in Alzheimer’s model brain doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

The salary for postdoctoral scientists is £36k. Science is global - if the UK is going to be 'the best country for science in the world', we need to be able to recruit the best scientists. Now, we might not be able to - only British scientists can apply.

Less than a week left for the applications to close!😊
All the best to the prospective students👍

Come work with us & colleagues Dr Jill Fowler, Horsburgh lab, Montagne Lab. We’re looking for postdoc interested in microglia-vascular interactions using -omics/imaging/cell approaches. Up to 5y funding potential elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

I’m so pleased to announce that my PhD study is now open for participants! 😁

Invited: Autistic young people between 12-18 years old, currently struggling with sleep (no sleep diagnosis needed), and willing to attend an in-person meeting in Edinburgh

Please share and RT!

Last week I left my Postdoc in the McColl Lab Edinburgh lab at UK Dementia Research Institute after >5 wonderful years of genuinely engaging science 🥼
I’ve been so lucky to work with and learn from amazing colleagues, many within the UK Dementia Research Institute and Alzheimer's Research UK networks I have been part of 🧠
On to new adventures! 🇨🇦

Come join us Edinburgh Neuroscience! The Wellcome-funded #PhD in Translational #Neuroscience is recruiting for its final🥲 cohort.

Generous funding! lots of flexibility in designing your project! exceptionally supportive programme! 11/10

Stef Szymkowiak from The University of Edinburgh shows that, in mice, Trem2 seems to mediate the microglial response which could promote resilience to SVD

Great time catching up with everyone on our Edinburgh Neuroscience Translational Neuroscience PhD day out in Winton Castle 🏰 cool talks & outdoors laser tag to finish off the day!

Here is an amazing image from a pilot experiment in collaboration with Kirsty Craigie, who is a tissue clearing and 3D light sheet microscopy expert! This is a whole cleared (stroke) brain stained for macrophages with colours reflecting depth of staining 🧠 #FluorescenceFriday

First conference talk 🙌 thanks PSS for the opportunity and for a great meeting!

We know there is endothelial dysfunction in small vessel disease, but have you ever wondered what this actually means?

Delighted to share our newly published review in collaboration with Joanna Wardlaw, Dr. Axel Montagne, PhD and Dr. Audrey Chagnot.

I met Denis at the start of my PhD and learning about his stroke recovery journey has been really invaluable. It was a pleasure co-hosting him and his daughter in a podcast, thanks Dementia Researcher Dr. Gaia Brezzo ! ⤵️
(you’ll have to excuse my first time podcast awkwardness though)

Our preprint now out on #myeloid heterogeneity in #stroke brain & spatial relations to brain wiring, cell death, ontogeny. Thanks to all contributors, collaborators Edinburgh Neuroscience @EdinUni_MeetCIR & funders inc Research at ARUK UK Dementia Research Institute biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Really fun evening with our Translational Neuroscience PhD students last night! So enjoyed it.
