An NIH advisory group announced today that they're recommending the agency boost its minimum #postdoc salary to $70,000, up from the current $56,484. Many postdocs feel "underpaid and overworked," a co-chair said. My latest for ScienceInsider: science.org/content/articl…

Delighted to share our latest work “Oligodendrocyte calcium signaling is required for actin-dependent myelin sheath extension” was published online today Nature Communications! Led by former grad student, Manasi Iyer! (1/n)

Check out our new preprint! Gustavo Della Flora Nunes and I had a lot of fun collaborating on this project and found some very interesting (and a few unexpected!) things about remyelination!


📣 82% of grad students & post-docs would leave Canada or program if they DO NOT see change in the #2024budget, 61% are VERY LIKELY to do so! #SupportOurScience 🚨 This is too HIGH! Will we see change in the 2024 budget? Justin Trudeau François-Philippe Champagne (FPC) 🇨🇦 Chrystia Freeland Mark Holland


Congratulations to lead author Michelle Cahill, Max Collard, @vincenttse, and team for this work on how astrocytes respond to glutamate and GABA, the two major neurotransmitters in the brain. 🎉 nature.com/articles/s4158…


Extremely excited to share our review on mature myelin dynamics out today! Ethan Hughes and I discuss myelin remodeling and turnover, mechanisms and functional implications. I hope folks will enjoy diving into this fascinating emerging field with us! nature.com/articles/s4159…


congratulations to Genaro Olveda and Maryanne Barasa for their beautiful paper that investigates how microglia dynamically clear single-dying oligodendrocytes and myelin sheaths. cell.com/cell-reports/f… Cell Reports Integrative Neuroscience at Dartmouth (IND) Dartmouth 🌲




Extremely happy to share our manuscript jointly authored by me and the amazing Lindsay Osso ! An awesome collaboration between the Ethan Hughes , denmanlab and Autobahn Therapeutics nature.com/articles/s4146… 🧵
