Grateful to see our Cell paper highlighted in a new Targetome commentary by Zhao, Agarwal & Bai on microglia→astrocyte Wnt signaling and glial coordination in synaptic pruning. maxapress.com/article/doi/10…

@achtera @CellCellPress Thanks for sharing your interest in astrocytes — there’s definitely exciting research happening! I recently gave a public seminar on this topic that starts broad and explains how glia shape brain health: youtube.com/watch?v=Gb22qh…

🔮 Open questions ahead: What happens when astrocytes change how much they touch synapses in development, sleep, aging, or disease? Does reduced astrocyte contact generally make synapses easier for microglia to remove? How do microglia remove less-contacted synapses?
