One of the last stories from my postdoc work with Howard Chang and William J. Greenleaf is out today Science Magazine led by Laksshman Sundaram. scATAC-seq of 8 different tumor types from TCGA. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Cross-disorder and disease-specific pathways in dementia revealed by single-cell genomics Exciting work Rexach Lab & Geschwind Lab @ UCLA, comparing #Alzheimers & other tauopathies Suggests shared & disease-specific mechanisms of selective vulnerability & glia authors.elsevier.com/a/1jlOCL7PXqRkF

Congrats to my postdoc Cecilia Pessoa Rodrigues on her Science paper. We show that dsRNAs from endogenous viral elements bind to TLR3, inducing the don't eat me signal, B2m, on HSCs. This protects the stem cell from phagocytosis by macrophages. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Recent work has shed light on the many functions of glial cells, including regulation of synapse formation and control of neural circuits, report Drs. Beth Stevens (beth stevens), Kelly Monk, & Mark Freeman. Check out their review! 😎 💡 bit.ly/3zkbXvj

Don't forget to register for our Virtual Course in Cancer Neuroscience Workshop. Day 1 - Cancer Biology for Neuroscientists! We have a wonderful group of speakers breaking down the basics of cancer biology!

One of the most wonderful privileges in academia is the opportunity to share science with others. Last week the BrainOrganoidHub had the joy of hosting amazing scientists from all over the world for our first Brain Organoid Workshop. What a success!!! Fikri Birey Jimena Andersen

It was so fun to see these talented scientists work hard to master iPSC/organoid techniques in record time! We are so proud of our first workshop cohort and can't wait to see how they incorporate organoids into their science. Sincerest thank you from all of us. 🫶

This is great! NIAID News have launched a collection of public domain illustrations (currently 550 individual icons) bioart.niaid.nih.gov

🚨 Great alternatives to BioRender are now available!! 📢 NIAID News offers a collection of public figures and icons for everyone to use. Check it out at bioart.niaid.nih.gov

Another great source of scientific art for figures by NIH! bioart.niaid.nih.gov/bioart/279 🙏🏼✨

The Lawrence Lab website (lawrence-lab.org) is live and we are hiring! We combine high resolution structure🔬 and cell biology🧫🧪 approaches to define mechanisms of stress response signaling in health and disease. Live postings at technician and postdoc levels: PLZ RT!
