Absolutely fantastic journey through the brain with Jasmine Harley and Greg Foot for all the family from the The Francis Crick Institute summer science program 🧠 🙌 PataniLab

Had great fun doing this live event! Watch it back to let me take you on a journey through your brain!

My first paper!

Very proud of my second paper working with Cathleen! My most productive two weeks ever..

Huge congratulations Rickie! As always, feel very proud and privileged to be in your group!

Our latest in Nucleic Acids Research (Nucleic Acids Res) reveals how astrocytes might become harmfully reactive through a post-transcriptional mechanism: academic.oup.com/nar/advance-ar… Well done Oliver Ziff Doaa M Taha and Hamish Crerar PataniLab UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology The Francis Crick Institute MND Research #DrivingMNDresearch

Delighted to collaborate with the brilliant Raphaëlle Luisier and her fantastic Group Idiap Research Institute on this exciting project... huge congratulations to the first authors Colombine Verzat Idiap Research Institute and Jasmine Harley PataniLab UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology The Francis Crick Institute Medical Research Council MND Association #drivingMNDresearch

Congratulations to two talented Postdocs Jasmine Harley and Ben Clarke for their terrific teamwork in writing and leading this review. I feel privileged to work with such a great team PataniLab UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology The Francis Crick Institute Medical Research Council #DrivingMNDresearch

Super excited to release this preprint. Really great work and an excellent team! Proud to know what neural networks are now (and not the biology kind)!

"A perfect opportunity to do something useful." Crick PhD student Dr Hannah Franklin normally focuses on neuroscience in PataniLab 🧠 But since January, she's also taken on a new role as a volunteer in our UCLH vaccination centre 💉 nature.com/articles/d4158…

Super cool

📰 Two PataniLab papers have shown how proteins accumulate in the wrong parts of cells in motor neurone disease, and have shown proof of concept in the lab for how it might be possible to reverse it in some cases. @BrainComms | Brain | #MND | #ALS 🔗ow.ly/9A2W50FLFEO

Very excited to share our new paper which has discovered a compound that can reverse a key hallmark of ALS in human motor neurons. Grateful to be supported by a fabulous team and collaborators PataniLab The Serio Lab academic.oup.com/braincomms/art…

Thrilled to share our latest work published in Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology where we deploy a pre-trained deep-learning image classifier to detect phenotypic changes in unsegmented images. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/na…

Our unique and high quality fluorescent microscopy data-set is publicly available in IDR (idr0112): > 150,000 images of control and ALS patient-derived MNs cultured in untreated versus three stress conditions (oxidative, osmotic, heat). doi.org/10.17867/10000…

Amazing talk by my friend and colleague Doaa M Taha about ALS and some of the research we do in our lab. Give it a watch! #MND #ALS #stemcells

Our latest: 'Astrocytes display cell autonomous and diverse early reactive states in familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis' Brain Link: academic.oup.com/brain/advance-… Well done Doaa M Taha Ben Clarke Collab with TheSibleyLab Thanks:Medical Research Council MND Research UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology The Crick

Our latest review just out in Brain: 'The role of astrocytes in prion-like mechanisms of neurodegeneration'. Great effort by Phillip Smethurst Dr Hannah Franklin Ben Clarke and a great collaboration with Dr Katie Sidle.

What cell type are you?? 👀🔬🧫 come play our board game and find out at The Crick #DiscoveryDay !

Fab group effort from the lab! We made a science board game where you start as a stem cell and transform into different types of cells depending on tokens you collect along the way! Thrilled to see it in action!
