Our new #PhD student Michaela Lunn gave an oral presentation at the recent OHRI Research Day in November and took home the first place prize! Michaela studies the immune properties of PD-linked protein #LRRK2. @OttawaHospital

A word cloud from the final thesis of our Master's student, Christopher Rousso, who successfully defended his thesis in November. Chris has done exciting work on the role of alpha-synuclein in the #immunesystem both in the brain and the periphery.

Take a look at our paper from 2017 to see our findings on possible anti-microbial effects of #alphasynuclein and an exciting new staining technique created by our lab
The Science of Parkinson's@ScienceofPD

@topdresearch David Beckham's lab has shown that alpha synuclein has antiviral properties ( ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P… ), & Michael Schlossmacher's lab has a similar line of research (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…). So this new PARKIN research is interesting from this standpoint as well

Please see our most recently published paper in #STM for exciting research connecting PD-linked protein LRRK2 with an important role in immune defences. We also identified an interesting #sexdifference.

A gene that has been linked to #Parkinsons disease controls the course of certain bacterial and viral infections in mice in a sex-specific manner. Read the new research from @uOttawa. #InfectiousDisease fcld.ly/e5q1x74
