Congrats to Celia McKee on her exciting work on astrocyte lysosomal regulation by BMAL1, out in PNASNews! Circadian clock protein BMAL1 broadly influences autophagy and endolysosomal function in astrocytes | Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Local translation occurs in peripheral #microglial processes (PeMPs) in mouse brain, and plays a role in phagocytic cup formation New from Joe Dougherty Mike Dougherty Lab WashU @sarah_koester4 @TristinaLi_Lab Jelani Deajon-Jackson Jiwon Yi, PhD (!) et al. nature.com/articles/s4159…

We’re hiring! Projects combine genomics, in vivo ephys and synaptic physiology to understand how plasticity in basal ganglia circuits give rise to maladaptive decision making- with a focus on models of substance use disorder and chronic pain! (1/n)

Interested in recording epigenetic states in the brain over time? Step by step instructions (and software) from the inimitable Allen Yen of Dougherty Lab WashU are live here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… And if you are at Brain Iniatiative meeting come find him (or me) at the posters!

Sick of how long MIC testing takes? Wish you could set it up 800% faster while maintaining its high accuracy? Let me introduce you to HT-MIC, a new robotics MIC workflow designed by Suman Tiwari Suman Tiwari with help from Oliver Nizet Oliver Nizet. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Very happy to finally present my PhD paper in the Musiek lab where we find astrocyte activation via loss of Bmal1 abrogates intra-neuronal tau/synuclein pathology! We also find Bag3 upregulation in a cluster of astrocytes in human AD patients that resemble DAA astrocytes! 👇

We are looking for a postdoc!! Do you love microbiome research? Are you passionate about using interdisciplinary approaches to improve Women’s Health? Do you want to work in a supportive, trainee-focused environment? If so, then come join us! DM me w/ Qs! jobs.utdallas.edu/postings/23937
