In Malaysia for PACTELS 2023. Packed program for the next three days!! Here to do a work shop on in vivo models for neurodegeneration research. Looking forward to all the talks on ALS. lnkd.in/gktb6TG5

Great opportunity! Ben is a fantastic scientist doing breakthrough visual neuroscience work!! If you are looking for a supportive supervisor - don’t miss out!!!

I'm looking for postdocs and post-baccs for my lab. If you or anyone you know are interested in what we do, reach out to me via email! 🔗Lab website: arunrichard.com/lab 📧My contact: [email protected] 🏫University/Institute: albany.edu/rna Please RT. 📢📢📢

Monday I'll be giving an online talk titled: "The melanopsin mosaic: exploring the diversity of non-image forming retinal ganglion cells". Come and learn about regional specializations of retinal neurons. World Wide Neuro 🧠🗺️ world-wide.org/seminar/9594

Later today, we'll be announcing the outcomes of Discovery Projects 2024. Stay tuned for an update.

This was a great conversation and really fun! Love talking about neurodegenerative proteins to anyone who’ll listen 👩🏼‍🔬

If you are a nurse practitioner in Australia, please consider completing this study to inform future education and policy on the use of diagnostic radiological investigations in NP practice: redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys/?s=DCW… Mary Kearns

Happy to share our newest mammoth preprint 🎉 our data suggest an RFC1-independent mechanism of toxicity in CANVAS, instead pointing towards a direct role for the AAGGG repeat expansion itself in eliciting synaptic dysfunction of CANVAS neurons 🧠

Hello Xverse, we're on the hunt for a postdoctoral fellow to study cellular and systemic metabolism with a quantitative, multimodal toolkit. Is this you or someone you know and love? Reach out!

Ever wonder if stress granules are intrinsically good or bad in neurodegeneration? Our new paper uses a unique tool to address this question: an alphavirus protein that blocks dimerization of G3BP but does not impact global protein translation. academic.oup.com/nar/article/do…

Great work @KirsteinLab

Our first study in a new repeat expansion disorder: CANVAS. Connor Maltby used patient iPSNs to define how this non-reference AAGGG repeat impacts neuronal function. He finds a novel role for the repeat in disease that is independent of RFC1 function science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Worm research does it again! The Nobel Prize Many congratulations to Victor and Gary. The power of discovery research shining through.

Naive tweet . . . but: Cricket Australia should get the Tests in Sri Lanka onto free-to-air TV. And definitely the WTC final. The whole country is locked in on the cricket: but as things stand the next time this will happen won’t be until the ashes in Nov. #AUSvIND #INDvsAUS
