Excited to share our new paper from the @YoungPearseLab describing interesting new connections between BAG3 and the retromer complex, as well as proteostatic machinery as it relates to Alzheimer’s disease. pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.25…
New TYP lab paper out today in @PNASNews from former PhD student Zach Augur and postdoc @FogoGarrett all about how astrocytic BAG3 coordinates Alzheimer's proteostasis proteins! Read all about it here: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.25…
New TYP lab publication is out today! A phenomenal review by @Heuerwego, Fasih Ahsan and Tracy providing a thorough overview of human cellular models to study AD lipid biology!

Congratulations to TYP lab postdoc @Heuerwego on being awarded a F32 NRSA Postdoctoral Fellowship through the NIA, titled "Identifying the cellular consequences of ABCA7 genetic risk in Alzheimer's disease." Looking forward to more amazing findings from Dr. Heuer's work!
Congratulations to the Young-Pearse lab's newest doctor @GizemTerzioglu_ on her successful PhD defense!!! We are so proud of her!!
We are excited to welcome Nalini Oliver to the lab! We are thrilled that she chose to join our lab for her thesis through Harvard's BBS program and look forward to working with her!
We are happy to welcome Julia Choi to the lab as our newest undergrad! We are also excited to have Arnab Misra and Cecilia Riordan-Bourges continuing their studies in our lab this summer as well!
TYP lab takes Chicago! Grateful for the organizers putting together another great ROSMAP meeting and for the opportunity to share our work! Tracy, our amazing postdoc @FogoGarrett and PhD student Olivia Pembridge all gave great talks! @rushalzheimers #ROSMAP
Shoutout graduate student Olivia Pembridge who gave a fantastic talk on her work studying the role of VGF in excitatory neurons at the Annual ROSMAP conference and won the Martha Ondrey Jr. Investigator Award 🏆 @rushalzheimers #rosmap
We had the opportunity to present our work using iPSC models to study vascular dysfunction in AD at the Vascular Contributions to Cognitive Impairment (VCID) workshop at WashU! Great conversations and new connections. Grateful to be part of such an impactful meeting! #VCID2026
Shout out to our fabulous postdoc @Heuerwego who gave a great talk on her work investigating genetic risk factors influencing dysfunction in microglia in AD at the ACT Research Symposium hosted by @kpwashington ! #ACT2026
Exciting science from our own Dr. Benoit at the Harvard Bipolar Symposium! Her poster on a population-scale single-cell atlas of peripheral immune cells in bipolar disorder highlights the growing importance of immune mechanisms in psychiatric disease. 🔬

We had inspiring discussions, established new collaborations, and the had the opportunity to share our work at the BD² Funded Investigators Meeting in Fort Lauderdale. We are grateful to be a part of a community working to help individuals with bipolar disorder thrive.
Excited to share our latest review!!🧠
