Swanberg Lab

New publication by our PhD student @BrolinKajsa 🎉

Nyfiken på hur vårt immunförsvar påverkar hjärnsjukdomar? Läs doktorand Filip Bäckströms @MultiparkL populärvetenskapliga artikel i @vetenskaphalsa vetenskaphalsa.se/paverkar-vart-…

Excited that @LabSwanberg @BrolinKajsa is joining the @ASAP_Research Global Parkinson’s Genetic Program (GP2) Annual Meeting for two days. #OpenScience in its best form!

If you're attending @adpdnet and are interested in alpa-synuclein and immune response, check out @MariaSwanberg ´s talk in the "DISEASE MECHANISMS: ALPHA-SYNUCLEIN, DOPAMINERGIC DYSFUNCTION" session. Live discussion Sunday 14/3 at 17:30 CET. #ADPD2021 🧠🧬👩‍🔬

Hattrick in females nominated for the #Minerva #leadership award and 67% chance for the winner to be a Multiparker. @LabSwanberg @SusanneIwarsson. med.lu.se/english/intram…

New post-doctoral position in our lab, working on Parkinson's disease's genetic regulation. TNG in Sweden is part of @MultiparkL environment that ranges from experimental pre-clinical research to studies on PD patients' life situation. #item_148277" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">med.lu.se/intramed/stipe…

New paper from the lab in Brain Behavior and Immunity Journal, led by @itziaferrer : authors.elsevier.com/c/1c4y63AAzzX0… Mhct2a allelic variants inducing a pro-inflammatory response and an increased vulnerability to seeded αsyn pathology and dopaminergic neurodegeneration in rats.

We are very grateful for the support to the lab from Olle Engkvists stiftelse and to @BrolinKajsa from the Royal Physiographic Society in Lund Nilsson-Ehle donations 🧠🧬👩‍🔬

Today @itziaferrer will speak about her PhD work in the lab, join her to listen more about PD, inflammation and genetics. Spanish-speakers though.

Congratulations to @JakobssonLab & @Kirkeby_Lab & co-applicants for getting a prestigious grant from the Aligning Science Across Parkinson's initiative! 🥳 @Lund_Stem Read more: stemcellcenter.lu.se/article/resear…

The Parkinson's Disease Genome‐Wide Association Study Locus Browser onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

MASSIVE genetic analysis of dementia with Lewy bodies using whole-genome sequencing, led by Sonja Scholz and too many others to name. Amazing work! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Projected PD prevalence will be more than 1.6 million with projected total economic burden surpassing $79 billion by 2037. Wake up everyone! #ParkinsonPACT #EndingPD #Parkinsonsecrets @basbloem @RayDorseyNeuro @ParkinsonDotOrg @MichaelJFoxOrg @APDAParkinsons @DavisPhinneyFND

Extra: for those interested in gene editing - the manuscript also describes a highly efficient in vivo CRISPR/Cas9 editing protocol in adult brain (up to 95% efficiency) using the Cas9 mice from @zhangf . #CRISPR 7/8

Join us for the Online Meeting on Parkinson's Disease, OMPD 2020 at ndsmeetings.com/ompd/index.php where @MariaSwanberg will speak at 13:10 CEST on "Immunogenetics in Parkinson's Disease"

Great to see the paper by the International RBD study group among the most cited Brain papers! academic.oup.com/brain/pages/to…

We agree! Thanks!

Excited to see the progress of PD genetics in world-wide populations @LARGE_PD @IPDGC_Africa and IPDGC Asia. @pdgenetics #IPDGC

Excited to be sitting in on the International #Parkinsons Disease Genomics Consortium (IPDGC) meeting @pdgenetics

We thank @Hjarnfonden for generous support to our project Immunogenetic studies of antigen presentation as a risk factor for Parkinson’s disease! @MultiparkL
