The lab is thrilled that Maria was recognized w/ Harvard’s prestigious Everett I. Mendelsohn Excellence in Mentorship Award, recognizing that beyond just doing world-class science, she cultivates a world-class training environment for grad students. Miri’s speech says it all!

Just had an awesome time listening to Shaun McKinnie talk about vanadium-dependent enzymes at UCSD! As a biologist, I really appreciated the interdisciplinary approach a lot. Chemistry is not my strong suit, but the narrative was too good to miss. Kudos on a fantastic talk🙌🏽.

Soooooo proud of Iris!!!!

My new undergrad started today and he is SO keen to learn. I can’t wait to work with him!!

On my way to my very first ALS meeting! I'll be presenting fresh data on molecular changes in the BBB in ALS patients. Even my lab hasn't seen these results yet! Super excited to meet experts in the field and learn more!

I had the pleasure of presenting some of my new data on cerebrovascular changes in ALS at the inaugural Reinvigorating Innovation in ALS meeting at UCLCC. As a newcomer to ALS research, the insights I gained were invaluable. Such a fantastic start in such a great organization!

Stoked to share our new paper with Britta Engelhardt eLife - the journal! Analyzing immune cell-endothelium interactions is laborious. Our UFMTrack tool automates this analysis, matches expert accuracy, and eliminates bias. Kudos to Mykhailo for leading this work! doi.org/10.7554/eLife.…

It has been a great pleasure to mentor Mahek, who came from Pune, India, to the Daneman Lab as a visiting undergrad for four months! Working with self-driven and eager-to-learn students gives me so much energy! I am excited for her future science career.

Huge congrats catie profaci, phd !!

Always so proud to be a part of Ben’s scientific family tree 🤍 I wish I could have spoken with him more than a couple times, but I know that so much of the way Ben approached science was passed down to me from my PhD mentor, and I’m so grateful for that!

We congratulate Professor of Pharmacology, @joann_trejo, Ph.D., M.B.A., for being elected to the British Pharmacological Society Honorary Fellowship! Read ➡️ tinyurl.com/ftd7tcpt

I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n
