š¢ Preprint alert! šØ Superstar postdoc, @marissascavuzzo, leads our latest work titled "Enteric glial hub cells coordinate intestinal motility". Marissa is a @HHMInews Hanna Gray Fellow and a former @NYSCF Druckenmiller Fellow. šRead the study here š biorxiv.org/content/10.110ā¦


We love meeting future scientists!!! So much fun working with Open Doors Academy and Rise Up Northeast Ohio š§Ŗš¬

Students in Cleveland Metropolitan School District are getting back into the classroom and we are excited to partner with Lincoln-West School of Science and Health! To learn more about becoming a teaching partner, volunteering, or ways to support us you can visit our website riseupnortheastohio.org.


The first issue from Rise Up Northeast Ohio is out! The Journal of Young Scientists (JoYS) allows high school students in the Cleveland Metropolitan area to publish the results of their experiments with the RiseUp program. It was such a ~joy~ seeing these young students get exposure to




Congrats to superstar postdoc @marissascavuzzo on winning the 2023 Eppendorf & Science Magazine Prize for Neurobiology for her work on how enteric glial cells regulate digestion. So proud of you! corporate.eppendorf.com/en/company/sciā¦

Learn how NYSCF Innovators @MarissaScavuzzo and Paul Tesar of Case Western Reserve are getting to the bottom of a long-neglected group of nervous system cells called glia, and the exciting successes they've seen in this work: bit.ly/3T4m0Mz

The nervous system in your gut helps with much more than digestion. New research methods have provided a glimpse into a world of tasks performed by glial cells, which are not as boring as some biologists once thought. Yasemin Saplakoglu reports: quantamagazine.org/in-the-guts-seā¦
