Our paper on glia-to-neuron conversion is out in @ScienceAdvances. We generated neurons with the capacity of true high-frequency action potential firing and expressing parvalbumin from early cortical astrocytes in vivo💥👇🏻🧵

Mouse cortical glia can be converted into neurons featuring hallmarks of an important subclass of cortical interneurons.

Today, I reflect on the legacy of @IGCiencia over the last 60 years and what it has meant for research and the scientific community in Portugal and beyond. IGC was never just a place—it was a pioneering model. #IGCLegacyLivesOn 1/5

So happy to see this project live. Please do try this at home! Peer inside the connections between neurons, and help our research, by proofreading AI.
zooniverse.org
Annotate mitochondria and synaptic vesicles in the developing hippocampus with us! You can help us decode the secrets of memory, learning, and neurological disorders.
