Delighted to see our work highlighted on the cover of JCB. What a great celebration of a brilliant PhD thesis by our talented Nina Kozar-Gillan. @ninakozar et al Journal of Cell Biology (bit.ly/3Kjmslg) Edinburgh Neuroscience

Happy to share great work from Peter AF 🇪🇺🇺🇦💙 lab, thanks to the wonderful work of Shaline Fazal, Clara Mutschler and our lab MyelinAlicante. Thanks also to @MonkLab1, Robin, Roger, Benjamin and especially Michael Coleman for their support. doi.org/10.3389/fncel.…

Do you agree that animal research is essential in #Biology & #MedicalResearch? 📢The EU will be discussing a complete ban of animal research - Please support this initiative pro animal research in Europe & spread the word 🙏 braincouncil.eu/pledge-for-sci…

Myelin turns into a risk factor for axons in #MultipleSclerosis. Team work by Stassart/Fledrich and Klaus-Armin Nave labs. High five to 1st authors Mar Bosch Queralt and Erik Schäffner, thx to Julia Edgar , Niko Fleischer (hal4k.bsky.social), @TingSun_MPINAT and everyone who contributed! nature.com/articles/s4159…

New study on multiple sclerosis: Myelin may be detrimental to nerve fibres. Joint research by #UniLeipzig and MPI for Multidisciplinary Sciences. Robert Fledrich uni-leipzig.de/en/newsdetail/…

So yes, our paper is out! nature.com/articles/s4159… Here's how the story unfolded - thread below🧵👇

New! Online now: Adipo-glial signaling mediates metabolic adaptation in peripheral nerve regeneration dlvr.it/Sz4qhM

Injury to peripheral #nerves in the body can result in pain and movement disorders. Scientists at #UniLeipzig have recently investigated how damaged nerves can regenerate better. Fatty tissue supports the healing process. #Medicine Robert Fledrich uni-leipzig.de/en/newsdetail/…

🚨We are hiring at the postdoctoral level. 🚨 RT very much appreciated!🤗

With the passing of Laura Feltri we lost a valued colleague who made incredible contributions to PNS research and beyond. She leaves behind a legacy that will be remembered. My deepest condolences to her family and friends.

Happy to be part of this nice review in Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology with Ruth Stassart and Alison Lloyd cshperspectives.cshlp.org/content/early/… ISABIAL Instituto de Neurociencias UMH-CSIC

We are looking for a postdoc to investigate behavioural & functional correlates in zebrafish with mutations in autism genes. Great opportunity to develop a new research direction towards studying the role of glia in neurodevelopmental disorders. Please RT elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

Happy to share that my PhD project found a home with EMBO Mol. Medicine! We pharmacologically and genetically modified aberrant myelin growth in rodent models of PMP22 gene dosage diseases. Details below 🧵

A beautiful study showing how PMP22 affects the lipid metabolism of Schwann cells in CMT1A.

Thrilled that the DFG will fund our #NeuroTune graduate school in Leipzig with €5.7M for 5 tandem projects creating over 40 PhD positions. The Stassart/Fledrich lab is proud to host two projects, exploring adaptive myelination in diverse contexts. tiny.cc/3fyvzz

Dear fellow scientists, please come to Bluesky. It’s a beautiful place medpagetoday.com/special-report…
