An unforeseen issue of adaptive deep brain stimulation is managing the control signal during #sleep, when brain physiology changes We used #MachineLearning for 'Sleep-Aware DBS', which proved to work regardless of target and disease. Arjun Balachandar 🇨🇦 🧠 doi.org/10.1002/mds.29…

Stroke lesions that cause limb ataxia localize to the cerebellum? The new study by Liesmäki & Kungshamn et al ⁦TurkuBrainlab⁩ shows that half of them do not. Instead, these lesions localize to a brain network. ⁦Now out ⁦Neurology Journal⁩ neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…

We’re presenting AlphaProteo: an AI system for designing novel proteins that bind more successfully to target molecules. 🧬 It could help scientists better understand how biological systems function, save time in research, advance drug design and more. 🧵 dpmd.ai/3XuMqbX

There is much we can learn from each other. Read the ideas on DMT discovery that came from UToronto Neurology bringing experts in #Parkinsons and #multiplesclerosis together in #Toronto (published with Springer Nature in Nat Rev Neurology) rdcu.be/dWf2U

Adaptive/closed-loop #DBS is a fascinating new tool which will likely expand the current list of indications, beyond #Parkinson We used it to understand #orthostatic #tremor during day-to-day conditions but also to stimulate on demand, with better results compared to classic DBS

New nature An unanticipated discovery: the brain suppresses the immune response by producing autoimmune "guardian peptides" that block neuroinflammation, which may be especially important in neurodegenerative diseases nature.com/articles/s4158… Important work by Jonathan Kipnis 💔🎗️

This just out! My colleague Peter Dirks and his lab published on the origins of Glioblastoma from neural precursor cells in a manner similar to injury reprogramming.

Our flag - a powerful reminder of Canada’s shared values, our tough resilience and our unique national identity. Proud to fly it internationally and beyond. (first unfurled 60 years ago today)

Quite possibly the best review of neurosarcoidosis ever! Thank you to Alex Muccilli for presenting at our last neurology grand rounds for the year and for sharing her “deep dive” insights and recent updates on management for this complex disease.
