Very happy to (belatedly – blame Covid…) celebrate the most recent poster award for @Natashahesketh from the lab. Many congratulations, Natasha - now only seven more needed for a free coffee…
Excited to share our latest preprint, our first foray into oligodendrocyte biology and (dys)#myelination, and the result of an ongoing, fruitful collaboration with our colleague Dr Shin Kang. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Returned from @BiochemSoc meeting tinyurl.com/Lipidation23 to find that @NatashaHesketh had been recognized with a(nother…!) poster award at @templemedschool's Dawn Marks Research Day. Congratulations Natasha!
Just back from very enjoyable @BiochemSoc Insights into Lipidation in Cell Biology meeting. Big thanks to @DrDDOM, @Thioesterase and @DR_SSFS for all their efforts! tinyurl.com/Lipidation23

Greatly looking forward to this week’s Shriners - Temple symposium. In-person again (at last!) with keynote Paola Arlotta @harvardstemcell, several other great speakers, and posters with exciting, unpublished work from @natashahesketh, Xiaotian Zhang and many more!
Just returned from #Neurotrophic Mechanisms GRC – terrific science, great to reestablish connections & make new ones, & the first public presentation of exciting work by Xiaotian Zhang from the lab. Many thanks to @rkuruvi1 & Lizzie Coulson for all their efforts! We’ll be back…!
Today we celebrated graduate student Xiaotian Zhang obtaining joint-highest score in her class for her Independent Research Proposal. A fitting reward for all her hard work! Many thanks also to Xiaotian’s IRP facilitator Gianluca Gallo!

@TUNeuralScience is excited to host today's seminar speaker @ErikaHolzbaur, who was invited by our graduate students and postdocs. We really look forward to Dr. Holzbaur's visit and seminar. #autophagy #neurodegeneration
Greatly looking forward to today’s @TUNeuralScience seminar from graduate student/postdoc invitee @ErikaHolzbaur – a fantastic scientist and a truly impressive role model and advocate for science!
Really impressive presentations at today’s @templemedschool Dawn Marks Research Day and big congratulations to @_ThomasLab graduate student @natashahesketh for her Poster Award! Glad all those acting classes paid off, too... #strikeapose

We have liftoff! Great overviews of the official launch of the iPSC Neurodegenerative Disease Initiative (iNDI). Large-scale, NIH-funded resource of genetically-engineered isogenic iPSC lines harboring neurodegeneration-related mutations.

Many congratulations to our former colleague Yang Hu and his team for their impressive new study in @NeuroCellPress! cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S08… #Glaucoma #NeuralRepair
Greatly looking forward to upcoming, in-person @GordonConf Cell Biology of the Neuron and thrilled that very talented @TUNeuralScience and @_ThomasLab graduate student @NatashaHesketh will be presenting her exciting work at this #GRC and the preceding GRS!

Excited to welcome Prof @RitaSattler from @BarrowNeuro to @TempleMedSchool to present her research on #neurodegenerative disease.
1st in-person speaker of 2022 for Shriners Research Center and a mini @rhuganir lab reunion!

How do signals from damaged axons stay active on their long journey to the cell body? New work from our lab provides some insights. Congrats to all involved!
