We wanted a safe and specific way to replace microglia, so we created one.

We are excited that our work describing microglia cannibalism is now officially in press! https://t.co/9mrfB0gC2Z Stay tuned because we are on to the genetic mechanisms! 😀

Thrilled to share new work from our lab led by ⁦@mitchkim_mw⁩! The results provide new insight to immune privilege and hopefully diagnostic/therapeutic tools || Endogenous self-peptides guard immune privilege of the central nervous system | Nature

Interested in studying type I interferonopathy? Here is a primer on existing tools from the self proclaimed "AGS supergroup".

New paper ALERT!! @MaraCowen discovered and defined how conserved autism-associated genes modify a 'social' behavior in C. elegans!! So proud of her work in the lab!

looking forward to tomorrow!!

Excited to share our new paper where we explore why dCas9-KRAB protein levels drop so drastically after neuronal differentiation in WTC11 and KOL2.1J iPSC lines. https://t.co/SBRXfWau75

🚨Postdoc positions available🚨 If you have expertise in T cell biology (primarily TCR specificity/function) and/or in artificial intelligence, and if you would like to apply your knowledge to cool questions in #neuroimmunology, please email me for inquiry.

One of the best ways to spend a sunny day in Philly is with these brilliant, creative,  and fun people! So honored to work with this awesome team! Happy #newpi Morris-Blanco Lab #strokeresearch

Congrats to @ChildrensPhila's Dr. Evan Weber, recipient of the @NIHDirector's New Innovator Award! Dr. Weber will pursue a novel approach to reprogram T cells with enhanced tumor killing function, paving the way for more efficacious #cancer therapeutics. @CHOPCancerCntr

So delighted that one of my very favorite scientists and people Dr Allen is a Pioneer Awardee (you heard it here first!) woooohooo! @salkinstitute

New protocols from Jessica Kahng and Andre Xavier for quantifying synapse engulfment by OPCs, based on foundational work from ⁦@SchaferLabUMass⁩ ⁦@stevens1lab⁩ ⁦@wonsukchung⁩ and others (1/4)

https://t.co/cgdK16JdGJ Itching can be annoying but could it also be beneficial? Maybe it’s your body 🚨 you of a secret invasion… Our freshly baked manuscript is trying to answer these and other neuron, 🪱 and macrophage-related questions. (1/n)🧵 👇🏼

Tremendously proud to share my fellowship work, online today in @NatureMedicine. We tried to understand why CAR T therapy for AML doesn't work as well as we hoped it would, and how we can solve that. 👇🧵1/10 @PennMedicine @CHOP_Research @GillSaar

Thanks to all the support from @UMassChan @NeurobioUMass. It is a honor to be part of this community.

In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, we present The Atlas of Inspiring Hispanic/Latinx Scientists. This resource showcases the scientific excellence of nearly 400 outstanding scientists. #LatinxAtlas #HispanicHeritageMonth https://t.co/f9VAR8mJoK

Tune in today!

#NGG is proud to present our next Thesis Defense given by Kelsey Nemec @Kel_Nem of the Bennett (@FChrisBennett) lab! Please join us in person or virtually (DM us for the link) on 9/4. Best of luck, Kelsey! #PhAlmostDone 🥳
