Second round of posters at #Synuclein2025! 🔎Stop by posters #160 (A.Castle) #134 (CL.Lam), LB04 (HJ.Chueh) and #74 (S.Dutta) to learn about our post docs and #DPhil students research on #Parkinson's University of Oxford Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery, Oxford


✨Congrats to Shijun (Victor) Yan for his exciting talk about #EVs and early #Parkinson's biomarker detection tools. Followed by a great discussion and useful insights from all speakers at today's #synuclein2025 session about biomarkers and SAA.

It’s #worldparkinsonsday and here at #Synuclein2025 we marked it with a 5K run through Cambridge #syn2025 #Cambridge2025 Parkinson's UK




Did you know that probable corticobasal degeneration has a long preclinical phase? Together with Xin You Tai we identified a case with a decade-long prodrome on neuroimaging. …mentdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/md…


Well done to our #DPhil student Hung-Ju Chueh Tofaris Lab who won the best poster prize for his work on Neuron-Microglia interactions in an iPSC-based model of #Parkinson's disease OPDC (Parkinson's Research) Research Day!


Many congratulations to our #DPhil student Joanna Komorowska Tofaris Lab Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery, Oxford Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences who was awarded the Gustav Born Scholarship in Biomedical Sciences St Peter's College to study an iPSC-based model of #Parkinson's disease. Well done!
