Posdoc at Morgane Thion Lab in College de France, former PhD at @SierraLabAch 🧠 Microglia lover, soft spot for development
París, Francia
Joined August 2021
Just wrapped up my first week as a postdoc in College de France at Morgane Thion Lab and I'm loving the views, both literally and figuratively! Excited for the research ahead 👩🏼🔬

Last week, I successfully defended my PhD thesis Microglia Development: From Proliferative Progenitors to Functional Phagocytes, under the supervision of Amanda Sierra. I am deeply grateful to Amanda, my amazing labmates, and everyone in attendance for their incredible support!

A must-read thought-provoking piece by @SierraLabAch, @rransohoff and team on the conceptual framing of glial synaptic pruning. I find their distinction between *active* “culling” and *passive* “scavenging” very useful https://t.co/vuQNMvnOP8 1/2

Happy to share our Perspective on #microglia #pruning and help to answer the questions of whether they are hunters or gatherers of brain #synapses

🚨New Perspective on microglia pruning 🚨 Thrilled to share our latest publication, where we propose a novel framework to distinguish between two potential mechanisms of synapse elimination: culling/scavenging. Check it out and let us know what you think!

See you soon! Apparently going through a PhD together can lead to a similar clothing style 🥹🩵
Today was the last day of these three girls together until January. Dressing matchy-matchy appears to be our way of saying goodbye! 🫰
