Talk to @Dzung_doha today at poster 113 to find out more about motor neurons and astrocytes from iPSCs in ALS / MND #ANS2022
If you enjoyed @NeuralOoi's talk at @AusNeuroSoc 2022 yesterday, come by my poster (#113) and learn more about the crosstalk between astrocytes and motor neurons in #ALS. @uowresearch @MolHorizons @ihmri

Amazing work!! More reasons to study RNA species bound and regulated by TDP-43 to understand its role in ALS and nervous system function.
New paper @Nature! With Pietro Fratta’s team @UCL, we uncovered a link between TDP-43 mis-localization and mis-splicing of UNC13A, a key synaptic gene, in ALS. Exemplifies power of human iPSC neuron models in predicting disease mechanisms + team science.

When is it time for your #biotech to look at CMT as an indication? When you are looking for a rare disease with high unmet medical need, but would also benefit from a potential market of 3M ppl globally, mature natural history studies, and an existing clinical trial network.

At the @KennersonLab we have shown calpain-1 is a new gene responsible for adult onset #spinalmuscularatrophy (#SMA type 4). Our work published in #FrontiersIn Genetics expands the number of neurodegenerative diseases caused by mutations in calpain genes.

Read about why our CEO Susan Ruediger co-founded the @CMTRF, the progress we have made in three short years, and why the future is bright for CMT treatments and cures.

A simple worm helps gain insight into a rare human neurodegenerative disease known to affect only two families in the world. First-ever in vivo model for studying CMTX6. #CMT #RareDisease #health #neurodegeneration @KennersonLab @Syd_health @anzacinstitute
