Local organizing committee in full force today preparing for tomorrow’s meeting! @SalmasoLab @Faiz_Lab @NeuroCarleton

Final thanks to @eyolab who rounded out today’s conference talks as our keynote speaker showing us that #microglia are more than immune cells, interacting with other glia and vasculature!!

Another wonderful #astrocyte talk from @Ciaran_MR about glucocorticoid receptors and the physiological stress response!

Attending my first glial cell conference today! @CANGlia2024 #astrocytes

Congratulations to our trainee talk winner Adela who shared her work about #astrocytes, ensheathing glial cells and #drosophila!! 🪰🧠

Attending a talk about the role of primary cilia in astrocytes by Dr. Jiami Guo @UCalgary @CANGlia2024 Did you know that astrocytes also have primary cilia? Not only neurons? First heard about this from @EhrlichAliza

Dr. Guo #movingThingsAlong with her talk about primary cilia!!

Dr. Aurelié de Rus Jacquet sharing an innovative way to investigate blood brain barrier function in Parkinson’s Disease! #astrocytes
