Pericytologist and neuroscientist. Currently researching the role of vascular dysfunction in Alzheimers Disease and Multiple Sclerosis. 🧠🧪🥼
Join us next Friday for a workshop facilitated by @BradASutherland's Perivascular Research Group! This workshop aims to provide insight in successfully developing an engaging and scientific literate presentation that will ‘WOW’ the audience. Check your email for a zoom link!
The primary cells of the neurovascular unit: endothelial cells🔵, pericytes🦑 and astrocytes🟢 🦋
Great to see Tram's paper online showing that rTMS increased interneuron activity following demyelination and increased remyelination by new and surviving oligodendrocytes. Thanks to coauthors including @DrCarlieCullen , @AlastairFortune , @LauraReale12 , @Tomlewis2310 .
Perivascular macrophages (LYVE1🟣) on blood vessels (CD31🔵) clearing out the brain 🧠 #FluorescenceFriday #neuroscience #immunohistochemistry
The Preventing Dementia MOOC starts on the 14th of May. A free online course that examines the evidence for dementia risk reduction. Join an international audience in learning about this important public health issue. mooc.utas.edu.au/course/20183
Check out our new work on how microglia interact with the vasculature through astrocyte end feet using the @AllenInstitute #MICrONS cortical mm^3 dataset! Had a great time working with @Gazz4_Science, @BradASutherland and @SorenGrubb to produce this work!
1/ 🔥 Exciting findings from our collaboration between @UTAS_, @SeattleChildrens, and @uni_copenhagen! We've discovered a new way #microglia interact with 🧠 vasculature, which could reshape our understanding of their role in #brain health and disease. 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
We invite applications for a postdoctoral position with the Glial Research Team in Hobart, Australia. Please apply online by following this link. careers.utas.edu.au/en/job/499619/…
We're hiring! Come and work with use on understanding the cellular mechanisms of brain dysfunction in MS! careers.utas.edu.au/en/job/499619/… with @LabGlial and @nickomatics
If you are interested in undertaking a PhD us please follow this link for more information utas.edu.au/research/degre…
We're recruiting! Interested in how #mitochondria and #astrocytes regulate neuroinflammatory responses during demyelination? Our group is looking for a PhD student: shorturl.at/firvM Project uses transgenic mice, confocal microscopy and transcriptomics. Get in touch!
Check out some of this work in GLIA onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/gl…
An exciting talk by @AlastairFortune about #MultipleSclerosis-associated gene variants @AusNeuroSoc 2023 in #Brisbane with some beautiful IHC images! @UTAS_ @LabGlial @ANS_Students
Fabulous talk by @BradASutherland at @AusNeuroSoc 2023 in #Brisbane about #pericytes and #microglia in health and disease. @UTAS_ @UTAS_MPH
📢 Exciting news - my latest preprint exploring the impacts of pericyte ablation on behaviour and brain health is out! 🧠🩸🐭 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @BradASutherland @LabGlial Pericytes 🟣 Vessels 🟢 #pericytes #neuroscience (1/3)
Sometimes #pericyte cell culture can get #spooky. Is this #perinormal activity? #HappyHalloween 🎃💀 perivascular.org/our-team @BradASutherland @NatKingScience @jomaree @Jake_Cashion_
