So glad to see this finally published! Thanks to @bwfalcon @Duff_Lab @slfwlr & all the people being part of this journey!
Great to see our finding with @Duff_Lab of #tau filaments tethered within brain extracellular vesicles in #Alzheimers disease now online @NatureNeuro. Congratulations to co-first authors @BehrTiana and @slfwlr 🥳 nature.com/articles/s4159…
It's finally out!! Extremely grateful for mammoth efforts by co-first author @BehrTiana, and @bwfalcon @Duff_Lab, and all other co-authors. Have a look to see how #cryo-ET can shed light on our brain's molecular secrets! 😍 See @alzforum: bit.ly/3V7ycMw #dementia

Join the Hallegger Lab in Oxford! Two post-doc positions available on how altered condensation of TDP-43 changes RNA metabolism. Biophysics of protein-RNA condensates and neuronal transcriptomics:

I am recruiting for 2 posts to join our FTD research! A research assistant or postdoc working on PET and coordination of a new study: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/49140/ A biostatistician to work on blood-based markers in ONFIRE: jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/49134/ Deadline 8th Dec - share widely!
🚨REMINDER - IDPSeminars is back 🚨 The first IDPSeminars of fall 2024 kicks off THIS WEEK with @dhnisz and @bwfalcon ! Sign up here idpseminars.com. Date: Thursday 7th Time: 10 AM PST / 1 PM EST / 7 PM CET Zoom links will be distributed by email on Wed. afternoon!
Looking forward to discussing our work with the IDP community!
With that, we (Jackie and Lucia) are excited to announce our upcoming season of talks, which restarts on November 7th (three weeks)!!!
Thank you @Ratolon, Juan, Guy and Sergio for hosting me @CNB_CSIC! I really enjoyed having the opportunity to discuss science and careers with you and your excellent cohort of PhD students.
Had the pleasure of meeting the one and only @bwfalcon at the @CNB_CSIC junior seminar cycle this week. An inspiration for many of us in terms of career development and work 👏🏽
Our lab @MRC_LMB is seeking a passionate PhD student to explore transcription-coupled splicing! Join our team for an exciting project to understand human gene regulation 🧬 Feel free to get in touch directly #PhD #cryoEM #biochemistry

Big day for neuroscience & the end of the beginning for whole brain connectomics. Shout out to @sdorkenw and Philipp Schlegel, first authors of the connectome papers, @MurthyLab @SebastianSeung for establishing #flywire to make this possible and @dddavi for birthing this dataset.
Big news! The fly connectome is featured on the cover of a special edition of Nature. This is all possible thanks to the collaboration of 292 members of The FlyWire Consortium! nature.com/immersive/d428… Check out the thread for an overview of the 9 #flywire papers published today
Our paper on cryptic splicing-controlled protein expression, which we hope will inspire safer and more adventurous gene therapy approaches for ALS and FTD, has been published in @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
