Check out our recent paper! Highlighting neurovascular interactions!Thank you Cell Reports, yongsookimlab and all team members for helping make this work possible! #neuroscience #neurotwitter #neurovasculature #mdphdlife

New research from yongsookimlab explores how different regions of the brain are supplied by energy via blood. Read more about their innovative mapping of vascular networks: bit.ly/3IpWkm2

I am so grateful for the opportunity to present at #isnvd and receive a travel award!

Great job Josephine!!

I love my lab family. That is all ✨ yongsookimlab

Precise optogenetic control of brain arteriole diameter in vivo. A way to probe vascular networks like a "circuit board" during studies of cerebral blood flow regulation. Collaborative work spearheaded by Philip O'Herron of Augusta University. elifesciences.org/articles/72802

Pericyte loss during Alzheimer's disease has been strongly linked to blood-brain barrier leakage. Our new data suggests that capillary flow deficits due to pericyte loss probably happen much earlier. Just published in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

When we published the oxytocin wiring diagram paper earlier this year, I thought we almost need another paper to actually explain 9 circuits with oxytocin connection in more details. Here it is! doi.org/10.3389/fnins.…, by Steffy B Manjila

Visit Steffy B Manjila this morning!

Check out Poster board A2 this afternoon! Josephine K. Liwang will present on exciting work highlighting GABAergic cell types and microglia in the developing mouse brain!

I’m having a wonderful time at #SfN22 in person this year! Tomorrow afternoon I will present my poster highlighting regional vulnerability and anatomical remodeling of the pericyte and vascular network in the aging mouse brain! Please stop by C61 from 3-4pm PST! 🧠🫀

I am so excited to say I defended yesterday! It was also so rewarding to have many of my wonderful mentors tune in on zoom!

Our Center at Seattle Children's Research Institute is hiring a new faculty member! Please RT and apply if you are interested. Having moved my lab to Seattle 4 years ago, I can confirm that it is a vibrant scientific environment and an amazing place to enjoy the great outdoors!

We are hiring a postdoctoral fellow to study mechanisms of brain microvascular dysfunction in aging and Alzheimer’s disease, using state-of-the-art in vivo multiphoton microscopy and transgenic mouse models. careers-seattlechildrens.icims.com/jobs/47698/pos…. More about the lab: theshihlab.com

Serial two-photon tomography has been a key tool for our cell type and cerebrovascular mapping in mouse brains. Here is a detailed protocol from sample processing to data analysis. star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/2373 by Josephine K. Liwang Hannah Bennett.

The second paper from Rebecca Fleeman, PhD in just a few months — she’s on fire! Super excited to share our work in APOE immunometabolism, this time at the cellular level 🤩

Pleased to share our latest paper on microglia pericyte associations published in Glia. Great work by a great team Catherine Foster Dr. Jake Cashion Jenna Ziebell Jo-Maree Courtney Lachlan S Brown, PhD and the twitterless Gary Morris & others.
