My second manuscript from graduate school is now on bioRxiv! We generated a comprehensive scRNA-seq dataset of mouse OPCs from young adult to aged animals with the hope of providing a reference dataset for everyone to dig into! tinyurl.com/aging-opcs

Hiring Alert!! I am looking for a tech w/ lab experience (meaning PCR...) & interested in gaining research experience in glial biology! You'll be the 1st to pick ur fav project from the 10+ that I have in mind 😌so plz RT and apply! uva.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UVAJobs/job/Ch…

With much gratitude and excitement, I here announce that I will start my own lab @UVA Dept. of Neurosci. @uvaneuro this September! It takes a village to land a TT faculty job and thank y'all for helping me achieve this dream of mine. Look out for the Lu lab & more OPC/glia news!

Does it mean that neurons… are… in fact… specialized glia….?? 🤪

@CECAD_ 🙏Thanks for all the positive feedback! 📢 Latest update: As expected: A reduction from -80 to -70°C reduced the consumption in this specific case by ~28% (from ~13 to ~9,4 kWh per day). So this will save ~1300 kWh per freezer per year! #Sustainability #GreenLab #Nachhaltigkeit

The road to a more equitable and just society must include promoting diversity and inclusion in our communities. I’m humbled and honored to receive the 2023 Community Ambassador Award for Diversity and Inclusion from @JohnsHopkins’ yesterday! 🤩🫶🏼

We were excited to bring Science at the Market back to the Waverly 32nd Street Market last weekend! @M_f_keles led a fascinating demonstration on how the electrical signals from your own muscles can be used to control a mechanical claw! 💪⚡️ #scicomm #Baltimore

Final version of our glowscope project is now out at go.nature.com/3mD7j4S The paper adds inexpensive fluorescence capability to the wonderful smartphone scopes that @ScopesWorkshop developed and tirelessly brings into classrooms and science outreach settings.

Excited to have this work from my postdoc out in print! Thanks and congrats to @AlexLassetter @aicher_sue and twitterless co-authors Jo, Amy, and Marc!

What....

I got an absolutely gorgeous oligodendrocyte Korean flag painting from @CodyLCall for my birthday!❤💙🤍🖤 Just in time for the miraculous qualification to the round of 16 in the World Cups!🥳

@ttmik @ttmik 🤞🏻

My latest research is on bioRxiv now! Proud to present the amazing OPC Ca2+ dynamics in the cortex that’s not known to us till now. NE plays a surprising role in driving those beauties! Thanks @EricT_Hsu I’m also on the market now. Plz rt! #glia

🚨Research Tech Position🚨 Come work with us at the Bergles Lab (@HopkinsNeuro) and fall in love with glial cells! Join us in exciting projects involving FACS, ISH, microscopy, single-cell sequencing, and more. Apply TODAY! Link: jobs.jhu.edu/job/BALTIMORE-…

Vollum Institute's Co–Director, Dr Kelly Monk, will give the keynote speech titled "Mechanisms of Neuron-Glial Interactions" at @GordonConf's Building the Nervous System: Cell Diversity, Circuit Assembly & Disease seminar this weekend. Dr Monk's talk is 8:30pm on 8/6. @MonkLab1

We are hiring postdocs! Are you interested in discovering the enigmatic functions of oligodendrocyte precursor cells in the formation and function of neural circuits, using zebrafish genetics, imaging, physiology & behaviour? Get in touch with the usual information. Please RT!

Holy. Shit. What a brilliant, horrifying cover.

Independent observations in fish, mouse & human oligodendrocytes describe an amazing method of myelination: the paranodal bridge. Fun collab with @SarahNeely18, @owengwydz, Jason Early, @lyons_lab, @AnnaWilliamsLab & Chandran lab that will make you rethink how myelination works
