We are thrilled to (re)introduce our recent graduate, Dr. Olivia Mistretta! 🥳 Although she will be missed, she is destined for a great career as a scientific writer and aspiring MSL. Congratulations Dr. Mistretta!! @neurophd_emory @EmoryMedicine @EmoryUniversity

New paper drop from our graduate student Andrew Worthy on spinal cord V1 interneurons shaping motor output. @laneygradschool @neurophd_emory @EmoryMedicine
William McCallum@willieneuro

Brand new (10 years running…) work from the @emoryalvarezlab out today - it’s a neuroanatomy feast. Joining the lab and seeing this take its final form I knew I was in the right place. The whole team is legendary!! (and V1s are the coolest) #content" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">elifesciences.org/articles/95172…

Former Postdocs Ryan & Paula and current @neurophd_emory student @willieneuro share their work on how GABA/glycine neurotransmission on regenerating motoneurons facilitates axon growth and muscle reinnervation. @laneygradschool @EmoryUniversity
William McCallum@willieneuro

Latest paper from the @emoryalvarezlab , which I'm grateful to have been able to contribute to, and got me started on my current love affair with motoneurons biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We may be at the PNS meeting but there are lots of implications from PNI in the CNS! Interested? Come check out my work for a flash talk today at 10:45am or a poster Monday at 2:15 (poster # P350) #PNS2024

Big congratulations to our senior graduate student @PottorfTana recently being awarded the 2024 @NIH #OSNAP. We look forward to sending her to Bethesda in November to share our neuroimmune work and meet with NIH program officials🥳 @EmoryMedicine @neurophd_emory @laneygradschool
Dr. Tana Sue Pottorf (Nitcher)@PottorfTana

Absolutely thrilled to share I have been selected as an award recipient for the @NIH #OSNAP 2024 cohort. Looking forward to meeting all my fellow recipients and sharing some of my data on microglia-motoneuron dynamics in November! 🎉 Big thanks to the A lab for continued support.

Inhibitory interneurons, such as Foxp2-V1, are crucial for motor development and are affected at early stages of pathology in motor neurodegenerative diseases like ALS. Here, graduate student @aeworthy presents a comprehensive examination of V1 subtypes. #tab-content" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">elifesciences.org/reviewed-prepr…

One of our senior undergrads, Celia Bianco, defended and received Highest Honors for her thesis on the age-dependent involvement of C1Q after peripheral nerve injury in mice. We wish Celia the best with her future endeavors @emorycollege @Emory_NBB #opentowork

The Alvarez lab is very proud of our graduate student @willieneuro for his presentation on tools for high res EMG's at the Sensorimotor Circuits for Limb Control meeting @OISTedu this past March, and additional presentation @EmoryUniversity @emoryDSAC GDBBS Research Symposium.

We are very proud to share one of our senior graduate students' work in developing a novel way to study locomotor development in mice. It is Olivia's hope that "this technique will bring new insights to neurodevelopmental disorders, movement disorders, and so much more."

We are excited to share the following publication which was a joint effort with the Cope lab @GeorgiaTech Herein, we elucidate the differing effects on spinal cord plasticity and inflammation between crush and cut peripheral nerve injuries. 🧵 cell.com/cell-reports/p…

Figure 6-7: If ccl2 is ablated from microglia, the sensory afferent -> motoneuron synapses (quantified via VGlut1) are preserved, muscles are still reinnervated, however, the stretch reflex remains lost. Further, ccl2 ablation does not alter amount of peripheral infiltration.

Figures 4-5: We see increased peripheral immune cell infiltration into the spinal cord in the cut compared to the crush. This corresponds to differing microglia CCL2 (a pro-inflammatory chemokine) expression. 6/n 🧵
