Happy to share the latest research from the lab, led by @catiasvgomes. In this study, we explore the activation of astrocytes and how this astrocyte activation both changes astrocyte function, as well as how it leads to neurodegenerative features. cell.com/stem-cell-reports/f…

It’s thesis defense Thursday! So excited for @harkinjade to show off her awesome research and put the exclamation mark on a stellar PhD! For those not @IUMedSchool , you’ll have to wait a bit longer for the manuscripts to be officially published, but it will be worth the wait!
