From UCL Brain Sciences, with the support of a global team, I am thrilled to share our new disease-gene linked to Primary Familial Brain Calcification in Nature Communications. Read here how #NAA60 variants make the brain turn into calcified lumps disq.us/t/4nd64gp UCL The Neurogenetics Lab ION

Yu et al. train a machine learning model to predict Parkinson’s disease-associated genes from GWAS loci using genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic data from brain tissues and dopaminergic neurons. tinyurl.com/4d5kfft4; tinyurl.com/2bys4uy4

I was fortunate to serve as a faculty for the Kyrgyzstan GP2 local training alongside incredible colleagues Alastair Noyce, Ed Jabbari, Cholpon Shambetova, and more who are not on Twitter. The course was a great success with the full engagement of our trainees!

Glad to see this published. Further refining the power of genetics in clinical trials!

Such great news!

In this case report, we identified the SNCA p.E46K mutation in a family with Russian ancestry. This is the third family in the world known to carry this variant. This further emphasizes the importance of genetic screening across diverse populations! …mentdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/md…

#YoungMembersGroup author highlights: Drs. Siciliano & Ricciardi (1st & last authors). They report more than 1/3 of people with Parkinson’s have subjective cognitive complaints (even without objective cognitive impairment). doi.org/10.1002/mds.29…

Excellent talk by the organizer of the #GBA1meeting! Ziv Gan-Or

Our new paper, published today, shows lack of human genetic evidence of a role for NLRP3 inflammasome in Parkinson's disease. Why is this important? See below. Study led by Konstantin Senkevich in collaboration with Mike A. Nalls, @HamptonLLeonard and others. nature.com/articles/s4153…

As the MDS Young Members Group leading crew, we made a lil website for #MDSCongress attendees who are eager to check out Philly, our #MDSCongress sessions and our team. Check it out and please share! Edits? Let me know! sites.google.com/view/mds2024ym… Yes, we have a giant QR code too:

Glad to be part of this year’s MDS LEAP cohort and connect with such dedicated professionals.

Congratulations to LEAP Advanced Program participants. #MDSCongress

See you in the evening for the Young Members Networking Event!

Congratulations for the junior award! Well deserved Ed Jabbari !

Excellent talk about the definition of Parkinson's disease by Dr Lorraine Kalia kalialabs

New research from Konstantin Senkevich Ziv Gan-Or & colleagues finds that rare heterozygous SYNJ1 variants were potentially associated with early onset #Parkinsons & variants in the Sac1 domain are associated with sporadic PD; Further study in large cohorts required nature.com/articles/s4153…
