Marty Samuels was incomparable – the pedagogic soul of an apprenticeship residency. At his morning report, ancient oral tradition met neurology: peerless eloquence, synthesis, style, wit, knowledge. But l will remember Marty most for his generosity. RIP. @BWHneurology

“He taught us kindness was not a weakness. He taught us how to find joy and fulfillment in being a physician and that neurology is a privilege for the practitioner.” This week in the #BrighamBulletin we remember Dr. Martin Samuels, M.D. 🔗👇 bwhbulletin.org/2023/06/13/in-…

Huge thanks to Dr Barbara (Kelly) Changizi our Movement Division clinical director without whose concerted efforts we would not have been awarded this! And thanks of course to michaeljfox.org for this tremendous support.

Interesting: New research from Vik Khurana Lab & colleagues presents a toolbox for "screenable iPSC 'inclusionopathy' models utilizing piggyBac or targeted transgenes to rapidly induce CNS cells that express aggregation-prone proteins at brain-like levels" cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

Thank you for your coverage, The Science of Parkinson's !! Alain Ndayisaba or I would be more than happy to answer questions and of course to share the reagents that numerous labs in the Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s network have already been using.

We are excited to share that APDA-funded researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital have published work on a novel technology for induced pluripotent stem cells. We’re so proud of this team and their contributions to #Parkinsons research! apda.link/Pluripotent Vik Khurana Lab

Please consider voting for Martin Hemberg! The innovation he and Nikos Patikas are proposing could lead to far more efficient editing of CNS cells with CRISPR-based tech.
