New paper by the @SiegertLab @ISTAustria @VHuebschmann Medina Korkut-Demirbaş @MayaArteagaJP and @venturino01 presents a new brain organoid model that reveals details of the developing nervous system’s response to viral infections, such as Rubella.

I am very excited to share this study from my team with a clear message: Better have your #microglia in the #organoid, especially in perspective of drug screenings! Great work from @VHuebschmann @venturino01 and Medina.

One of our newest data pieces: We struggled to recapitulate inflammatory-mediated ganglion cell loss in the contralateral eye after optic nerve crush - until we accepted that it might not seem there. #DeepLearning #retina biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Optic nerve crush does not induce retinal ganglion cell loss in the contralateral eye

Purpose Optic nerve crush (ONC) is a model for studying optic nerve trauma. Unilateral ONC induces massive retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration in the affected eye, leading to vision loss within...

Congratulation to our @ISTAustria summer intern @FiloteaCrasovan , who received the first poster prize for her presentation. She is working with Medina to figure out how #microglia migrate. Stay tuned for exciting data to come... :)
