Overexpression of cognate tRNA rescues peripheral neuropathy in a CMT fly and mouse models. Check out our findings @ScienceMagazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Today is the start of @SeriousRequest to raise money for ALS research @st_als. At 13h our PhD student @MarijeBeen will give a lecture at the Mariënburg library in Nijmegen on how we use fruit flies in ALS research.

🌟 Join us in support of @SeriousRequest and @st_als! 🤝 On Dec 17 and 20 we have demo's (brain computer interface?!), lectures and children activities at the @bieb024. Read all about it (and please donate) here: npo3fm.nl/kominactie/act…

Day 2 of the #ALSGRC in beautiful Les Diablerets. Enjoying making connections inside and outside the conference centre! @PolymenidouLab @Rothstein_Lab @akcook4 Richard Robitaille, Sandrine Da Cruz, Lucie Bruijn @BVahsen @LucyFarrimond @StorkebaumLab & some lovely Swiss cows 🇨🇭

Our PhD candidate Anne Wienand gave at talk at the #GRS on ‘Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Related Motor Neuron Diseases’ today and she’ll be staying for the #GRC. You can find her at poster #58 on Wednesday/Thursday. #ALS #CMT

Will you join Erik at the challenge workshop on ‘Brain Epitranscriptomics’ of the @NeuroscienceSAS in Switzerland? neurosas.org/challenge-work…

Congratulations to this year‘s Awardees of the Nobelprize in Chemistry. Thanks to the development of click chemistry we are able to label nascent proteins in flies and mice. This allows us to study changes in protein translation occurring in Neurodegenerative diseases.

We will be represented at #Neurofly2022 by Erik Slot and @MarijeBeen. You can come and find us at the poster sessions tomorrow (P168) and on Thursday (P131). See you there!

We are hiring! Are you looking for a postdoc position and are you interested in mouse genetics / motor neurodegenerative disorders? Check out our job vacancy: surfdrive.surf.nl/files/index.ph…

Our PhD students Anne Wienand and @MarijeBeen will be representing us at @FENSorg! #FENS2022 They will be presenting their poster on Monday morning (S03-332) and Wednesday morning (S07-298). We hope to see you there!

@GJCVeenstra and @KlaasMulder10 will collaborate with Anne Wienand the @DondersInst to resolve an ongoing debate in the field: does skeletal muscle contribute to ALS pathogenesis? 🧠
