We are hiring! If you are looking for a PhD position and are interested in cellular and molecular neuroscience, consider applying! @FGA_lab @VUamsterdam @ERC_Research Please share 🙏 workingat.vu.nl/vacancies/phd-…

So excited and grateful that @ERC_Research #ERCStG will fund my project RNA.ORG to investigate the molecular mechanisms that regulate mRNA localization in neurons! There will be positions opening soon so get in touch if you are interested! @FGA_lab @VUamsterdam

Congratulations to Nikki van Bommel for her great PhD defense of her thesis ‘Dense core vesicle biogenesis in the Golgi apparatus of Mammalian neurons’ 🎉🎉@GeneticAMS @VUamsterdam @amsterdamumc

@rikvanderkant Congratulations 🎉 nice work!

We had a great day! Together with our colleague’s from Belgium with had a great bike ride to rise funds for @MDBRide4Rare. Check gofund.me/763ef123 @VUamsterdam @amsterdamumc @GeneticAMS

We made it! You can still donate;) @VUamsterdam @amsterdamumc @GeneticAMS

We are ready!

We are ready! 🥳

Today on Rare Disease Day, we jump start the fundraising for our Million Dollar Bike Ride team! On June 8th we will bike 80+ km to raise money for the rare disease STXBP1-RD. Support us here: gofund.me/e3147b49 #Leap4Rare #RareDiseaseDay #STXBP1 @curestxbp1 @ODC_UPenn

@hdmacgillavry @UUBeta Congratulations 🎉

I am incredibly happy that we got awarded an NWO-VICI grant! In this project we will resolve the nanoscale molecular processes at neuronal synapses that lead to the formation of new memories. @UUBeta
