Congratulations KC on the fantastic recognition and support for your work!

In a rare but serious complication of cancer, the body’s own immune system can start attacking the brain, causing rapid-onset memory loss & cognitive deficits. New research from Junjie Xu Stacey Clardy MD PhD and Jason Shepherd sheds light on the cause bit.ly/3ucBgNf

Fergil - It it great to have you here and wonderful to see you building your team and setting up your lab. Welcome!

Congratulations to Junjie Xu and Jason Shepherd lab, as well as University of Utah Neurology and other collaborators. What an exciting story! University of Utah Health University of Utah

A remarkable story from christopher gregg , one of our own U of Utah Department of Neurobiology faculty. He is a pioneer and so committed to patients and finding new approaches to cancer treatment, all while doing incredible neuroscience and genetics research. Chris is an inspiration.

Congratulations to the Link lab! Cool DMM Journal cover!

Dr. Gary Schoenwolf truly is a terrific scientist, educator and mentor as well as a distinguished editor and author. His legacy is remarkable. We are proud to have him as Emeritus faculty and as a colleague.
