Weāve updated our BioRxiv preprint!š„³š§ Our study on co-pathologies and neuroinflammation now includes significant new findings that strengthen our conclusions! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/ā¦
My first, first-author paper is finally out for preprint!! Here we show that co-pathologies are likely behind the neuroinflammation and neuropathology related to neurodegeneration. More to come!š¤š¾š«¶š¾ biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/ā¦

Yesterday I successful defended my thesis! Thank you to everyone to helped me get to this point. @HarmsLabUAB thanks for being the best co-workers a girl could ask for. Looking forward to continuing my scientific journey with @lesleylezhang at Yale this Fall š

By comparing the brains of pts with mild motor deficits Ā± nigral synucleinopathy vs. sporadic PD, Chu et al. provide evidence that initiation of nigrostriatal DAergic degeneration occurs independently of a-syn aggregation and can be tau mediated. tinyurl.com/yn3aanun
Thank you to @UABNews for this article summarizing our recent publication highlighting how IFNgamma plays a role in MSA progression. @njgallups uab.edu/news/research/item/1ā¦

Exciting news! My first first-author publication is out! š¤© thank you to all the co-authors on the paper, especially @HarmsLabUAB for helping with this exciting discovery. actaneurocomms.biomedcentralā¦
Congrats to grad student @njgallups on having this story out!! In this paper we show that IFNgamma contributes to pathology in a model of MSA. actaneurocomms.biomedcentralā¦

By comparing the brains of patients with mild motor deficits Ā± nigral synucleinopathy, and patients with PD, Chu et al. find that initiation of nigrostriatal DAergic neurodegeneration occurs independently of alpha-syn aggregation and can be tau mediated. tinyurl.com/mvmk6ej6
Excited to have this one out! Read more about how innate and adaptive immunity are involved in Parkinsonās disease and how targeting both local and systemic inflammation will be a potential therapeutic approach in our review with @MaluTansey science.org/doi/10.1126/scitā¦
