Phosphatidylserine is highly important for brain development, but how can we reliably label its exposure in living tissue? Eimina Dirvelyte and the team developed a genetically encoded sensor, now published at Cellular and Molecular Biology letters: link.springer.com/article/10.118…

Today Ugne Kuliesiute successfully defended her PhD thesis on the role of phosphatidylserine and sialic acid in the development and refinement of neuronal circuits. The first Dr from Urte Neniskyte lab. Congrats! The thesis can be found here: tinyurl.com/mwac2adk

Glycocalyx is the first contact point of cell to cell interaction. Ugne Kuliesiute is investigating how it’s dynamics determine circuit development. Her participation at #IBRO2023 is supported through her project funded by Vilnius University Science Advancement Fund.

The best IBRO - International Brain Research Organization World Congress with the best Ugne Kuliesiute and Gintarė Urbonaitė ❤️❤️❤️ #IBRO2023

Our recent article in Nanoscale Advances with Dovydas Gabrielaitis and Lina Saveikyte has been highlighted as a Popular Advance! Read our article and see the full collection at rsc.li/popular-advanc….

Committed till the end ❤️ With the future double neuroscientist offspring Lina Saveikyte is presenting her AI tool for automated analysis of dendritic spine number and morphology. Lina was awarded IBRO - International Brain Research Organization Travel Grant and supported by Lithuanian Neuroscience Asociation #IBRO2023

Our Daina Pamedytytė at the very middle of FENS Travel Grant awardees for #IBRO2023!

Completing the contribution of Urte Neniskyte lab at #IBRO2023, Daina Pamedytytė presented her poster on RNA integrity evaluation in samples lacking ribosomes. Daina came to IBRO - International Brain Research Organization World Congress with support of FENS Travel Grant and Hello Bio Early Career Scientist Grant.

📢 It is finally here 📢 The webinar season will start soon with Prof. Sandra Siegert as the first speaker on October 2nd Sandra Siegert @ATgliaNet ISTAustria
