Our study on glioblastoma-associated immunoregulatory astrocytes is out in @Nature today by @CamiloFaustAkl! We identified GBM-derived IL-11 as a regulator of TRAIL+ astrocytes, which limit anti-tumor T cell responses via apoptosis.

This is important: without urgent action clinical academia in the UK is at serious risk of dying out.

With universities unable to afford them, clinical academics across the country are being offered redundancy.
These are the people who teach our doctors and conduct ground breaking research.
More must be done to support them.

It is truly unbelievable - how long can this go on?

Interested in #oligodendrocyte metabolism and/or #multiplesclerosis? Our paper is now at Biorxiv! We show that oligos express MCT2, the high affinity monocarboxylate transporter, well known for supplying neurons with astrocyte-derived lactate (astro-neuron lactate shuttle)👇

@LakatosLab @mbeisen Mustn't grumble. Nice to hear from you. How are things?

Everyone says “Today’s PhD students are so accomplished I wouldn’t have gotten in today” as if it’s a good thing. It’s not. There are amazing young scientists out there today. But grad admissions is ignoring wide swaths of them because it’s been infected with the same credentialist bullshit of faculty hiring and grants.

Pretty crazy after reviewing the applications of some Stanford PhD applicants and feel like they can graduate right away after the admission 😄

@mbeisen Given a fixed program size, rejection of 90-95% inevitable.
What saddens me is that the "criteria" for acceptance have become rigid. No mavericks allowed. Even that would be acceptable if we didn't still have dropouts, but we do...

Interesting paper on the role of KIF5A in axon biology - doi.org/10.1016/j.nbd.… - similar structural and mitochondrial transport findings to those we found in #astrocyte processes in KIF5A deficiency: doi.org/10.1038/s42003… in Communications Biology.
