Njoud and I wrote a review article about our favorite cells - radial glia - and their complex yet fascinating relationship with endothelial cells and the cortical vasculature. 🧪🧠 #devbio #neurodev #neuroscience #science

Enjoy!

Mitochondrial dysfunction precedes neurodegeneration in DRPLA patient-derived neurons, and phenylbutyrate improves survival. Dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) is a progressive autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the ATN1 gene, which encodes the transcriptional corepre...

Super proud of Njoud and her PhD thesis work.
Here she demonstrates that mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the earliest defects in DRPLA-patient derived neurons. Furthermore, neurodegeneration and ROS accumulation can be rescued with phenylbutyrate treatment.

Johns Hopkins sues federal government over NIH funds Johns Hopkins University joined several universities in a lawsuit on Monday evening suing the federal government over NIH funding.

Johns Hopkins officials said the NIH funding cut puts at risk approximately 600 current and ongoing clinical trials at Hopkins, including open clinical trials in cancer, pediatrics and children’s health, heart and vascular studies and the aging brain. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/education/hi...

It seems like there are so many journals that will accept reviews from another journal now it might be worth doing that - especially after a year!
