Thanks so much was great to see you and be back in Oxford.
It's an absolute pleasure to host @TSpiresJones to @OxfordDPAG as part of HoD seminars. She gave a brillant talk about synaptic propagation of tau in Alzheimer’s disease and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. It was a treat to welcome her back to @WolfsonCollege as well :)
