‘Immunometabolism in the Brain: How Metabolism Shapes Microglial Function’ @TrendsNeuro Review by @LPBernier, @elimyork & @brian_macvicar; #AAI2021 #Neuroimmunology cell.com/trends/neurosc… #immunology

Fresh of the press! Gamma range optogenetic stimulation shows neuroprotective effects after stroke in mice. Thanks to everyone who worked hard on this paper. @maxjtv_tm @JeffLeDue @MatthieuVanni @michaelxiao86 @LPBernier @vangreenmouse @brian_macvicar cell.com/cell-reports/f…

Dr. @brian_macvicar's lab at @DMCBrainHealth has published two papers looking at #immunometabolism in the brain. In this Q&A, authors @LPBernier and @elimyork talk about the findings and where the field is headed. bit.ly/3mOQSxG

microglial metabolism & brain immunometabolism @LPBernier, @elimyork & @brian_macvicar @TrendsNeuro Review, now online #neuroinflammation #neurodegeneration #Alzheimer cell.com/trends/neurosc…

Two papers published today out of the @brian_macvicar lab with authors @elimyork @LPBernier provide insight into immunometabolism in the brain, which plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases like #Alzheimers & #Parkinsons. Read more here! ow.ly/whd750Bv9Ok

Lots of exciting new data out there showing metabolism regulates microglia in the brain! Read all about it in our new review in @TrendsNeuro! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Quaranstream @FondationLeducq meeting ! No lab visit or funny lunch but good science by @matildebalbi @DavidKain17 @LPBernier @PBNeuroVascLab @brian_macvicar @DAgalliu @opto_brain_imag @vangreenmouse Endres & Frostig Labs

Microglia are the immune cells of the brain, so it's important for them to function in any environment. New research from @brian_macvicar lab shows they can still do their job even when there's no glucose around! Check out their findings in @NatureComms go.nature.com/2xrVjcU

Very pleased to tweet about today’s pub from the lab with LP Bernier and Eli York co-1st authors- Study Shows Immune Cells of the Brain Still Function in Glucose-Limited Environment | Centre for Brain Health centreforbrainhealth.ca/news/2020/03/2…

New research published today in @NatureComms shows microglia continue to function even when they can't access glucose! This study was done in the @brian_macvicar lab and led by @LPBernier and @elimyork Check it out here: go.nature.com/2xrVjcU

Proud to share our work on the unique metabolic flexibility of microglia in the brain! These microglia won’t stop working, even without glucose! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Excited to share a recent paper with @nlweilinger, @JeffLeDue, and @brian_macvicar showing how GFP affects metabolic lifetime imaging of NAD(P)H. doi.org/10.1364/BOE.10…

Congratulations to the amazing Eli York who just passed her PHD exam with flying colors. What a wonderful student and colleague!! Presenting Dr. York!

.@LPBernier and @brian_macvicar at @DMCBrainHealth have demonstrated that microglia, the brain's immune cells, are able to sense changes in the brain environment in the nanoscale by using actin-dependent filopodia. bit.ly/2IeCIDQ
