Dreams became reality through @michael_CUAnsch tremendous PhD work! Thrilled this phenomenal collaboration with @CUNeurophotons @LabRestrepo is out in the wild. Looking forward to helping others leverage the powers of long-term three-photon microscopy 💪🏼🤓🔬

New work from Yasmine Kamen shows that differentiating oligodendrocytes are filled with the zymogen procaspase-3. This provides a specific marker for new oligodendrocytes and suggests a role for this pathway in oligodendrocyte fate decisions. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New work from @Anpietra that defines in vivo mitochondrial morphometrics and dynamics in microglia. Alicia discovered that mitochondria are rarely present in surveillant or injury-responding processes. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… @MCBDartmouth @DartmouthNeuro @dartmouthartsci

congratulations to Xhoela Bame on her amazing paper that defines the mitochondrial dynamics occurring during oligodendrocyte and myelin generation. nature.com/articles/s4146… @MCBDartmouth @dartmouthartsci @NatureComms

congratulations to @GenaroOlveda and Maryanne Barasa for their beautiful paper that investigates how microglia dynamically clear single-dying oligodendrocytes and myelin sheaths. cell.com/cell-reports/f… @CellReports @DartmouthNeuro @dartmouth

🥳Congratulations @GenaroOlveda for successfully defending his dissertation and becoming Dr. Genaro Olveda! @DartGRAD

Thesis Defense Announcement: Please join us on Thursday, May 2nd at 9am in Kellogg 200 to support Genaro E. Olveda @GenaroOlveda in presenting his thesis seminar! @DartmouthGRAD

Important contribution and clarification about when and how these amazing cells die by Tim @myelin_nation and other co-authors Yasmine Kamen and Enrique Piedra. Thanks for highlighting @SfNJournals @SfNtweets

MCB @DartGRAD student Xhoela Bame from the @bobalhill lab shared 1st place for best poster at the annual @dartmouth @DartmouthNeuro @GeiselMed #neuroscienceday! 🥳🧠 Want to hear about Xhoela's work? She's giving the @DartBioMT talk this morning at 9am in Remsen 512 🧑‍🔬🔥

New work from Genaro using oligodendrocyte 2Phatal to determine how dying oligodendrocytes and myelin are cleared from the brain. Genaro discovered that this process is highly orchestrated, carried out by single microglia, and modulated by Cx3r1. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New work by Xhoela reveals how mitochondria change during oligodendrocyte generation. In addition to showing precisely how these organelles are partitioned in the cell, Xhoela also discovered that animal arousal impacts mitochondrial motility in OPCs. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The future is visiting again. MITOchats are back this Thursday The MITOscience of tomorrow, today. See you there! @bobalhill  @MargheZamb  @NGrotehans  @langer_lab

Congrats to MCB @DartGRAD student Xhoela Bame (@bobalhill's Lab) on being selected as one of the top 5 writing winners in the 2023 Science Policy and Advocacy Certificate Program for STEM Scientists! 🥳✍️ #scicomm #scipol

new work from the lab by Tim Chapman! striking differences in cell death that depend on oligodendrocyte age.

MCB @DartGRAD student Alicia Pietramale balances her research in @bobalhill's Lab in @dartmouthartsci Department of Biological Sciences with being an outreach superstar with @NerdsquadI! #scicomm #STEMoutreach

Look forward to visiting the beautiful Dartmouth campus today. If you are interested in using optical microscopy to study psychedelics, I will give a talk this afternoon @MCBDartmouth @DartmouthNeuro

TREM2 and APOE do not modulate phagocytic clearance of dying cells! Live imaging of cell death and phagocytosis in Alzheimer's mice. From @eyiyemisi @bobalhill, Anu Rai from @JGrutzendler lab @NeurologyYale @WuTsaiYale @YaleNeuro @dartmouth #Alzheimers biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

New paper from the lab! @myelin_nation and colleagues developed a demyelination model called oligodendrocyte 2Phatal, revealing surprisingly fast synchronous remyelination by distinct OPCs nature.com/articles/s4159… @dartmouth @dartgrad @MCBDartmouth @DartmouthNeuro @NatureNeuro

Thanks to the @Klingensteinorg and @SimonsFdn for supporting our work!
