Happy to share this recent review with Mika Simons - White matter aging and its impact on brain function: Neuron
cell.com
Aging leads to a decrease in white matter volume and damage to myelinated axons, contributing to neurodegeneration. Myelin breakdown can trigger inflammation, creating a vicious cycle that causes...

Super cool visual and story!
My first-author paper is out today @NatureComms ! We investigated how oligodendrocytes produce myelin. Using volume EM, we characterized oligodendroglial ER (magenta) in developing myelin and explored nonvesicular lipid transport involved. #lipidtime
