Drs. Brad Zuchero (ZucheroLab) & Husniye Kantarci and their collaborators discovered that neurons require signaling from glia to become fully excitable. Their findings were featured on the front cover of @cellpressnews. Learn more: med.stanford.edu/neurosurgery/n…

Can blocking the kynurenine pathway, a key regulator in brain metabolism, improve brain function in Alzheimer’s? Research by Katrin Andreasson and her team, with support from Knight Initiative, suggests it could. 🔗 brainresilience.stanford.edu/news/drugs-imp…

Happy Birthday Ben! Today would’ve been his 70th birthday. A renowned scientist who changed the way we see glia cells and the brain and a wonderful friend and advocate, Ben was an inspiration to us all.  #neuroscience #glia #advocateforwomeninStem #TransRightsAreHumanRights

New research into synapse loss, neurodegeneration, and brain aging is being funded by the Knight Initiative’s Catalyst & Pilot Grants. $1.24M supports 14 interdisciplinary projects to stimulate bold new approaches to exploring brain resilience. brainresilience.stanford.edu/news/advancing…

Some cool new microglia replacement systems in which we show brain macrophages are sufficient to drive interferonopathy in a model of Aicardi Goutieres syndrome. Work by @Kel_Nem with Chris Bennett ... and our lab's (MBL) first paper!

Super-excited to reveal our latest fluorescent voltage indicator, ASAP5, now online Neuron! ASAP5 features higher responsivity and kinetics, allowing detection of single synaptic transmission events. The link gives free access until 2024.11.09: authors.elsevier.com/a/1joYd3BtfH9B…

In honor of National Postdoc Appreciation Week #NPAW2024, Stanford Neurosurgery celebrates the important contribution postdocs make to our department! ZucheroLab Ryann Fame, PhD Xinnan Wang Lab

Thank you for this wonderful opportunity! Together with ZucheroLab, I am excited to build molecular circuits within oligodendrocytes to activate myelin repair, and to understand and reverse their contribution to disease.

Today we introduce human neural loop #assembloids created from 4 parts derived from stem cells to study the cortico-striato-midbrain-thalamo-cortical pathway and to model neurodevelopmental disease Work led by the remarkable Ji-Il Kim and Yuki Miura in the lab. Also in

Excited to announce that our 2025 Advanced Research Training Course schedule is up and applications are open! 🎉🎉🎉 See you in Woods Hole! mbl.edu/courses

nature.com/articles/s4146… I am excited to announce our work on how myelin loss culminates in neurodegeneration has been published at Nature Communications. While I have previously covered our findings as a preprint in more detail below, our key findings are:
