Excited to share that I'll soon be moving back to Edinburgh to start my own lab, as part of the BHF-UK DRI Centre for Vascular Dementia Research!
The Rajani Lab will be recruiting soon, so keep your eyes peeled...

Excited to announce that I will start my lab at VIB-CMN early next year! If you are fascinated by how the immune system shapes the gut-brain axis in neurological diseases, and you think myeloid cells hold most of the secrets, check out our open positions below – or reach out!

Our paper is finally out (my first published first author)! In a tau model, we saw changes in signal encoding in vivo in tandem with synapse and structure alterations. A full summary in the qt below or go read the paper if you’re interested!

@ClionaFarrell_ @DrNatalieRyan Congratulations Clíona 😍🎉👏🏻
Edinburgh, Scotland 🇬🇧 Català
Delighted to have submitted my PhD thesis on Monday this week 🎉 Thanks to everyone who helped get me to this point!
And continuing the excitement, today I'm officially starting my postdoc role in the Wiseman lab, exploring Down syndrome and familial AD with @DrNatalieRyan 🧠

We have a new paper out in Alzheimer's & Dementia
@alzassociation today. It shows that multiple different brain cell populations #microglia #astrocyte #neuron all contribute to the vulnerability of the #Alzheimers brain to secondary inflammatory challenge. Thread below

Good fun and amazing presentations from ECRs at @UKDRI @UKDRI_ECR conference in Leeds - and a great showing from young Irish Neuroscientists @ClionaFarrell_ @neurolucy @Ger_Crowley13
Clíona Farrell@ClionaFarrell_
I had the pleasure to co-organise the @UKDRI Neuro-Immune ECR conference this week! The quality of talks from early career researchers was fantastic and we heard perspectives from experts in this area, Emanuela Pascuito and @Cunningham_Colm! Thanks to all who attended 🧑🔬🧠👩💻

@StefSzymkowiak from @EdinburghUni shows that, in mice, Trem2 seems to mediate the microglial response which could promote resilience to SVD

First conference talk 🙌 thanks PSS for the opportunity and for a great meeting!

Arteriole, capillaries, venule - the three elements of microvasculature, ready for the show of #FluorescenceFriday ! Note how the cyan nuclei of arteries (left) are more elongated than those of venules (right), a useful tip when working at @MontagneLab !
