Feeling the post-#NIM2023 depression? Come join us at the end of September in Venice and let’s discuss neuroimmunology in the context of neurodegeneration! How do neurons, astrocytes, macrophages and microglia at parenchyma and borders contribute to cellular vulnerability?
Please RT! Neuroimmune signaling within & across brain borders contribute to neurodegeneration. But what determines certain synapses/cells to be vulnerable? Which cell-cell crosstalks impact synapses? How do we balance the +/- conseq of neuroinflammation? TIME WE GO DEEP ! [1/4]

In a fascinating study led by @Duff_Lab, researchers have created a new model system for studying the pathology of tau, a protein implicated in #Alzheimers - a significant leap forward in scientists' ability to study the role of tau in neurodegeneration 👉 buff.ly/3zhSZm5
