Happy to share our paper “Proteomic profiling of Interferon-Responsive Reactive Astrocytes in rodent and human” out now in GLIA! 🧠✨Neuroscience Institute at NYU Langone Health NYU Langone Postdoctoral Affairs Thread👇🏽 (1/7) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Super excited for our next WDSD celebration on March 16th 2024! The event is open to anyone with Down Syndrome and their families/carers - please share with anyone who you think might like to attend! Spaces are limited so get your free ticket now to secure your place!

Public engagement is fundamental to undertaking research that changes lives. Our scientists are working to engage the public in a multitude of ways, exemplified in 4 important initiatives that were nominated for the 2023 UK DRI Engagement Prize👏 👉buff.ly/3NetPvo 🧵1/5

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.…

Over a year later and absolutely delighted to have this published in eLife - the journal. Huge team effort from everyone in the UK Dementia Research Institute at Edinburgh Neuroscience. Biggest thanks to McColl Lab Edinburgh for his incredible mentorship and support. As my first postdoc project back in 2018 it’s been some ride! 😲
