We are the Brain Energy Lab at the University of Sussex, led by Dr Catherine Hall. We use several imaging techniques to probe neurovascular function.

🧠Check out our latest paper (from @cathnaledi's lab, co-first-authored by @OrlaBonBon & @kirashaw). We show vascular changes in awake APOE4 mice are mild vs earlier studies with big blood flow deficits. Read the thread below to see why we think responses were mainly preserved🧵:.
I’m delighted to announce the lovely @orlabonbon and @kirashaw 's paper is out in @_jcbfm.Haven’t got time to read it right now? Here’s a 🧵 to summarise it! 1/11.

Check out our lab's latest paper!.We used novel and existing data to show that there is a gradual change in vascular function and mural cell population across the vascular network, indicating that there isn't a clear boundary between arterioles and capillaries.
New paper! We use new and existing data to show gradual change in mural cell and vascular function across cerebrovascular network, not clear arteriole/capillary boundaries. Thanks @AndyShih_Lab & @cai_changsi for such constructive review. Key findings:🧵.
