So proud of Hendrik Heiser, my first PhD student presenting at #SfN24. Hendrik can track the fate of single neurons for several weeks during learning and after stroke, which allows outcome prediction of cognitive abilities in mice after stroke.

I am super happy to announce that I received one of the ERC Starting Grants 2024 @ERC_Research to study fundamental principles of neuronal repair. Extremely gradeful for all the help and feedback from friends and collegues during writing and interviewing.

We are searching for a #postdoc to work on the development of #polygenic scores 🧬for #stroke-related phenotypes 🧠 and their implementation among stroke survivors. Chance for a senior coordinating role in an international interdisciplinary team! Please RT nature.com/naturecareers/job…
