Read the first ever published #GUTScience paper online now! Letai et al have published the paper "Epithelial and stromal remodelling in murine Crohn’s disease-like ileitis" via bit.ly/3ODejwj #CrohnsDisease #IBD @druppygill @BritSocGastro @bmj_company @Gut_BMJ @BMJOpen_Gastro @FrontGastro_BMJ

We're excited to launch the Institute for Glial Sciences at Case Western Reserve University! Directed by Paul Tesar, it will advance research on glial cells and their role in diseases like MS, Alzheimer’s, autism, and Parkinson’s. Details: bit.ly/3YPz4HL

As a mentee, colleague, and good friend of Marissa’s I can’t recommend her lab enough to anyone considering joining!!🤩

@biancaislam @BWFUND @cwru @CWRU_GI @UHhospitals @UH_RE_Institute @caseccc Congrats Bianca!!! 🤩

Many thanks to @BWFUND for selecting me for this prestigious award that will continue to help me accomplish great science during my postdoc in the Cominelli laboratory @cwru @CWRU_GI @UHhospitals @UH_RE_Institute @caseccc and help propel my career towards independence 🧪🧬

@marissascavuzzo @SimonsFdn @SFARIorg Go Nina and Naya!!!

Gut team unite 💪

Common household chemicals pose a risk to the brain’s myelinating cells Thrilled to share groundbreaking findings from our latest study led by @ErinFCohn at @CWRUSOM's Institute for Glial Sciences, in collaboration with the U.S. @EPA. nature.com/articles/s4159…

DREAM TEAM

The nervous system in your gut helps with much more than digestion. New research methods have provided a glimpse into a world of tasks performed by glial cells, which are not as boring as some biologists once thought. @yasemin_sap reports: quantamagazine.org/in-the-guts-se…

Learn how NYSCF Innovators @MarissaScavuzzo and @TesarLab of @cwru are getting to the bottom of a long-neglected group of nervous system cells called glia, and the exciting successes they've seen in this work: bit.ly/3T4m0Mz

@TesarLab @marissascavuzzo @ScienceMagazine The superest of stars! 🤩

Congrats to superstar postdoc @marissascavuzzo on winning the 2023 Eppendorf & @ScienceMagazine Prize for Neurobiology for her work on how enteric glial cells regulate digestion. So proud of you! corporate.eppendorf.com/en/company/sci…

@marissascavuzzo spreading the good enteric glial word!!

Love this rockstar team 💪

Some Polaroids from our journal release celebration showing mentors and students come together and get hard copies of JoYS to bring home! #JustPublished #STEM #CMSD #Cleveland

The first issue from @riseupneo is out! The Journal of Young Scientists (JoYS) allows high school students in the Cleveland Metropolitan area to publish the results of their experiments with the RiseUp program. It was such a ~joy~ seeing these young students get exposure to science and research... I think we convinced some of them to pursue careers in biomedical research 🔬🧫🦠 acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc…

Students in @CLEMetroSchools are getting back into the classroom and we are excited to partner with Lincoln-West School of Science and Health! To learn more about becoming a teaching partner, volunteering, or ways to support us you can visit our website riseupnortheastohio.org.

We love meeting future scientists!!! So much fun working with @ODA_CLE and @riseupneo 🧪🔬

📢 Preprint alert! 🚨 Superstar postdoc, @marissascavuzzo, leads our latest work titled "Enteric glial hub cells coordinate intestinal motility". Marissa is a @HHMInews Hanna Gray Fellow and a former @NYSCF Druckenmiller Fellow. 🙌Read the study here 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

It has been SO much fun to jump into the world of enteric glia with @marissascavuzzo 💩 Grab a snack and read up on what happens when you eat up!
