Dr. Charles Eberhart (@NeuroEyepath) has spent 15 years researching pediatric brain tumors to identify new therapies that will improve post-treatment outcomes. Visit giving.jhu.edu/story/pediatri… to learn more about Dr. Eberhart, @JHUPath, and support for his work. #FacultyFriday

Flortaucipir PET has limited ability to detect PART Very important study by the Mayo Clinic group using an impressive post-mortem dataset of 248 individuals who underwent Tau (and amyloid) PET ~2 years prior to death. Among many interesting results, this study convincingly demonstrated that Flortaucipir PET can not be used to detect primary age-related tauopathy (PART) in vivo.

Congratulations to Hopkins GI pathology @JBirkness for being selected as an @ASCP_Chicago 40 under 40! Vote for her here for the top 5: woobox.com/qz39et/gallery…

1🔬/ Excited to share our latest preprint led by @ShuxiaoC , @Shenggao10 , @GarryPNolan , @SizunJ , @ZongmingMa , and with help from @shaleklab, Scott and more! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are hiring postdoctoral fellows to study the longevity factor klotho and brain resilience in aging and Alzheimer's – using cellular, molecular, behavioral, and bioinformatic approaches! Please DM me if interested. Example of our work is below: nature.com/articles/s4358…

A wonderful celebration of great science and mentoring at the @_BrightFocus event at @SfNtweets 2023!

Final version released. 'Experience-induced remodeling of the hippocampal post-synaptic proteome and phosphoproteome' - Thanks Taewook, @alexei_bygrave, Martin and @rhuganir mcponline.org/article/S1535-…

Synaptic genes were specifically dysregulated in tau-positive neurons and gene expression changes were similar in PART and AD

The newest preprint from our lab using spatial transcriptomics to identify transcriptional changes in neurons with tau pathology in Primary Age-related Tauopathy and Alzheimer's disease medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share the first paper from our lab! tinyurl.com/5n7fvwvh We engineered a new kind of time-gated calcium integrator, CaST, that can rapidly and non-invasively tag activated neurons in vivo with a small, biochemical handle. What makes this tool special and unique? 1/6

“Synaptic Dysregulation Associated with Tau Pathology in Aging and Alzheimer's Disease”. Thank you @MeaghanOMorris  for the engaging presentation and discussion at our monthly breakfast meeting.

@thepathphd Another good list with women leaders in neuropath, including women leaders in tumor neuropathology (Dr. Giannini) and in neurodegeneration (Drs. Crain and Bigio) neuropath.org/awards-and-lec…

Hi #PathTwitter & #Neuropath Twitter, I’m working on some content highlighting women who have been pioneers or leaders in neuropathology. Unfortunately, google is turning up empty, which breaks my heart. Anyone who should be on my list?

Adding @GabrielleCoste who did such nice work with the XTC analysis in this work (more on the quality of XTC restoration biorxiv.org/content/10.110…)

Excited to share our new preprint showing synaptic changes in PART associated with high tau pathology medrxiv.org/content/10.110… @rhuganir

So excited to see our work characterizing #BRAF #glioma in adults finally out in the world! I couldn't have asked for a better partner-in-research than @wenyalindabi and collaborators @CPratilasMD @NeuroEyepath among others. rdcu.be/c6BzF @Nature_NPJ @hopkinskimmel

@MaggieFlanagan @UTHealthSA @sudha_md @jme_walker Congratulations!

I start Feb. 1 as Associate Professor of Pathology w/Tenure, Endowed Baptist Health Foundation of San Antonio's Distinguished Chair in Alzheimer & Neurodegenerative Diseases & Co-Director of the South Texas ADRC #neuropathology Core & Biggs Brain Bank at @UTHealthSA 🧠🔬😆🎉!
