Join us this Thursday at noon UCI Stem Cell to discuss fostering a culture of growth in scientific collaborations. Learn valuable insights and strategies for creating a supportive and innovative environment. #scientificcollaborations #growthculture #researchlab #leaders #teamwork

I’ll be presenting a poster tomorrow at NeurotraumaSociety #NNS2924 😊 come find me at 14.05 if you’re interested in microglial inflammation after SCI and TBI!!

In a mouse model of #Alzheimer’s disease, amyloidosis itself triggers age-related #oligodendrocyte and #myelin damage mediated by CD8+ T cells that promote the accumulation of interferon-activated myelin-damaging #microglia nature.com/articles/s4159…

RNAseq is commonly performed. We compared N=30 wild-type Bl6 mice to an N=30 heterozygotic knockout with a phenotype, and then downsized. We found you need at least an N= 8-12 to avoid a >50% false positive rate. A 2nd line confirmed the finding. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I'm excited to announce that I was invited to speak at this week's FASEB Translational #Neuroimmunology conference here in Niagara Falls! This short talk will be my FIRST conference talk, so I'm really excited to receive questions and feedback about my graduate research! 🥳🧠

Our research is now published in nature! This work, the culmination of my graduate work with Jason Yen Sun Lee and Kei M Igarashi / 五十嵐 啓, investigates item-outcome associative learning in the context of prefrontal-entorhinal cortical circuit. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Center trainee Mary Doan invites you to experience a “day in the life” as a UCLA PhD candidate studying molecular and medical pharmacology. She’s studying how pluripotent stem cells “eat” or use specific nutrients to enable their next identity in the Teitell Lab. 👩🏻‍🔬🧫 🍧 🏖️

We're excited for our latest work published in @Neuron! We explored the impact of Alzheimer's risk factors APOE4 and TREM2-R47H in a tauopathy mouse model, revealing elevated microglial cGAS-STING signaling and senescence in females with both risk factors. cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

Science is built on trust. What happens when someone destroys it? My first feature for The Transmitter investigates the emotional and existential fallout for one lab in the aftermath of a misconduct case. thetransmitter.org/science-and-so…

Welcome our November issue into the world! nature.com/neuro/volumes/…

an episode on MEMORY! why is yours bad? where are mems stored? also childbirth amnesia, movie myths, aging, cramming, hormones, & how to let go of the past. Mnemonology w/ Dr. Mike Yassa of UCI CNLM ·& UCI Brain 🧠 is avail for you here: alieward.com/ologies/mnemon…

Join us in Gross Hall on Tues, March 4th @ 7 PM! Light refreshments will be provided at this free event! Dr. Cummings and Dr. Hasselmann will be presenting "Unlocking Hope: Using Stem Cells to Better Understand Traumatic Brain"! See the Linktree in our bio to register!

Check out this talk if you want to learn more about some of the cool traumatic brain injury work our lab does! 🧠

Thanks to your support, we raised $22,450 from 27 donors on #UCIGivingDay, and were able to unlock our gift challenge of $15,000 from Dr. Lorna Carlin! This support will play a vital role in providing funding to our scientists as they accelerate their research.

Aileen Anderson named vice chancellor for research at UC Irvine. The internationally recognized neuroscientist will helm the Office of Research, which provides central campus administrative support, oversight & compliance assurance for research programs. bit.ly/44sSNiq
