#SACNISTA if are you attending #2022NDiSTEM stop by booth 1804 to learn more about the MBL! @MBLScience @sacnas

It’s day 3 of #MBLmarchmadness and our awesome lamprey is in competing in the “Out of Towners” Category! @JMorganLab @MBLScience docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

The MBL is HIRING! We are seeking candidates for a new faculty position in the Eugene Bell Center for Regenerative Biology and Tissue Engineering. Learn more and apply today! go.mbl.edu/BellCenterHire #stemjobs #sciencejobs #researchjobs #academicjobs #hiring #nowhiring #jobad

Honored to have been a part of @JMorganLab this summer as part of the @NSF REU program at @MBLScience . This summer has confirmed my desire to pursue a PhD in one of the biological sciences while giving me the tools to achieve this goal. So grateful for this experience!

We are hiring a postdoc at my lab @MBLScience. Please spread the word. Feel free to get in touch with me for informal inquiries. #Platynereis #WormWednesday #AcademicJobs Apply here: recruiting.ultipro.com/MAR1033MBL/Job…

🚨Ahead-of-print🚨 Katz et al. explore the ability of larval sea lampreys to recover burrowing ability following spinal cord injury. While the ability is recovered 9-11 weeks post spinal cord transection, some deficits persist. 🔗doi.org/10.1086/711365 #neuronalregeneration

Excited to share our new paper examining the recovery of burrowing behavior in the larval lamprey after spinal cord injury! Great work from Postdoc Hilary @hil_katz, RA Kaitlyn @kfouke2, and former @MBLScience REU student Nicole journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/71…

So excited to be presenting at #SACNAS2020 Session: "It’s Not Just in Your Mind: How the Brain Coordinates with the Body in health and disease" this Thursday at 4:00p EST. Hope to see you there!!

Huge congratulations to Karina @KaJaVaBa on receiving an NIH R03 grant to study synaptic dysfunction in Parkinsons disease! social.mbl.edu/karina-vargas-…

The Morgan Lab is hiring a new Research Assistant to work on projects related to spinal cord regeneration and neurodegenerative diseases! Please share and RT! @MBLScience recruiting.ultipro.com/MAR1033MBL/Job…

New eNeuro Featured Finding on research from @JMorganLab @bankssusanm @audrey_medeiros @MBLScience: Chaperoning the Rescue of Synaptic Vesicle Recycling Defects Caused by Excess Alpha-Synuclein Read more on the #eNeuro Blog: blog.eneuro.org/2020/07/featur…

@JMorganLab has a @biorxivpreprint providing additional evidence suggesting that impaired vesicle endocytosis is a cellular target of excess α-synuclein & advances understanding of potential mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis in synucleinopathies biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

MBL Director Nipam Patel talks all about our new digital education initiative #MBLSciShoots! youtu.be/-eeB-c66PkE

#AmplifyWomenScientists Definitely have to give shoutouts to some of the amazing women I've worked with from the @JMorganLab! @thescientist21 @KaJaVaBa @MollyxMcQuillan @audrey_medeiros @TessaHark

@JMorganLab & colleagues report a "viable chaperone-based strategy for reversing the synaptic vesicle trafficking defects associated with excess α-synuclein, which may be of value for improving synaptic function in #Parkinsons" eneuro.org/content/early/….

Congrats Susie Banks, @audrey_medeiros, @MollyxMcQuillan, and others on their most recent paper out of the Morgan lab! Hsc70 Ameliorates the Vesicle Recycling Defects Caused by Excess α-Synuclein at Synapses eneuro.org/content/early/…

Postdoc @hil_katz represented the Morgan lab at #SICB2020 and shared the wonders of the lamprey with local middle school students!

I am excited to announce that @GlennaClifton and I will be organizing the “What is a Scientist?” outreach program again at #SICB2020 on Jan 8th! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! Learn more and sign up here: forms.gle/xcncsQJbTBsXMz… @SICBtweets @SICB_SPDAC

The Morgan lab is definitely getting into the Halloween spirit!

Vampires are real! This prehistoric fish feeds on the blood and other bodily fluids of fish right here in lake Michigan. See the blood-sucking biology of this invasive species up close in the Great Lakes gallery!
