Now on bioRxiv: 35+ #Tau structures from 6 cases of #PSP, 2 #GGT, 2 #AGD, 1 #ARTAG, 3 #intron10mutants, 1 #FBD and 1 #FDD allow structure-based classification of #tauopathies and the identification of a new disease (#LNT with GPT filaments). biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to attend #ADPD2022 this week! Prof. Spillantini presented on interactions of neurons and glial cells in neurodegenerative diseases yesterday. Come visit us at our posters from PhD students Janine Brandes and Helen Dakin (boards 300 and 5).

After quite a while, we've finally managed to crack the #cryoEM structure of #alphasynuclein filaments from #Parkinsonsdisease and #DLB, which share a common fold, suggesting these diseases are on a continuous spectrum. 🥳🥳🥳 As always with Michel Goedert. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

What a great time with SpillantiniLab and Coleman Lab at Cambridge! Maria told us the story of how she found alpha-synuclein to be a key component of Lewy bodies (1st pic in front of microscope room where she made the discovery).
