IIH – a disease of young and obese women – why and how? Our paper on this elusive disease is out now- for a swift update, read the short version on verse here (or the longer here: rdcu.be/deJfi)

Our science is certainly important - but feels less so when one’s kids take a leap. Congrats to my oldest for her high school graduation today 💪. Proud mother ❤️. (Would so have been at #cvb2023 otherwise - enjoy that great conference everybody!)

My heartfelt thanks to Lundbeckfonden for this honour 😊

Once again - thanks to Lundbeckfonden for putting focus on diversity in all its forms with this LF Scientific Enrichment Prize. Honoured to be the 2023 recipient 🙏

Great review from Allodi Lab 💪

How can patients and rats have hydrocephalus and not elevated ICP - and in other conditions/models, the opposite? We here show that SHR rats have hydrocephalus without elevated ICP, CSF secretion/drainage (rdcu.be/df4bn). The search for the molecular driver continues...

Awesome possibility in the Pellegrini lab - don’t miss out if you want to add to this understudied - yet highly clinically relevant - topic in a great environment 👍

Hydrocephalus may arise after a hemorrhagic event - but not because of elevated osmolality of the ventricular CSF. If interested, see full paper here: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

The CSF secretion rate is elevated at night - but why? In our search for the molecular driver, we determined the day-night fluctuation in choroid plexus gene transcription and CSF metabolite content. Find your favorite gene/protein published in PNAS nexus.
