A study in C. elegans suggests a role for dynamin protein DYN-1 in axonal repair. Without DYN-1, over half of the severed axons could not repair themselves. In PNAS Nexus: ow.ly/YMip50OjV1w
Illustration of the mechanosensory neurons in C. elegans after axotomy. In B, The PLM neuron was cut and successfully fused in the control animal carrying the zdIs5 transgene but unsuccessfully in the dyn-1 animal.

Our latest research is now out in @PNASNexus!! We show the importance of DYN-1 proteins for rapid neuronal repair after injury. This is the culmination of a lot of hard work from @TarikaVR and Sam Dhananjay, and a wonderful collaboration with @hoxueyan and the @HilliardLab

Very happy to share our research on the important role of the MEC-17/ATAT1 and ATAT2 proteins in maintaining the synaptic connections between neurons. Great collab between us @NeumannLab, @RogerPocockMelb and @WormlockHolmes rdcu.be/cTVSO

'Not a way to live': Scientists brace for bleak Christmas as COVID cash crunch hits research

Scientists across Australia face losing their jobs in the coming weeks after missing out on "last chance" government funding as the sector faces a COVID-19 funding crisis.
