Great to see Tram's paper online showing that rTMS increased interneuron activity following demyelination and increased remyelination by new and surviving oligodendrocytes. Thanks to coauthors including @DrCarlieCullen , @AlastairFortune , @LauraReale12 , @Tomlewis2310 .

I enjoyed coauthoring this @TrendsNeuro spotlight with @FletcherJL showcasing interesting research from @aiman_saab and others in the area of oligondendrocyte-axon interactions.

Our project will use IPSCs from the @ResearchMenzies MS Stem biobank. We will make more iPSC lines available through MS Stem as the project progresses. https://t.co/qWSfozGJiS

We look forward to starting work on our NHMRC Ideas grant with @FletcherJL, @nickomatics, @BradASutherland and @BruestleLab. Together we will find out how MS-associated genetic variants alter brain cell function.
