Thank you for this wonderful opportunity! Together with @ZucheroLab, I am excited to build molecular circuits within oligodendrocytes to activate myelin repair, and to understand and reverse their contribution to disease.
Congrats to the five teams awarded Synthetic Neuroscience Grants to advance tools for studying brain circuits. Tackling challenges that require interdisciplinary expertise, $1.24M was awarded by Wu Tsai Neuro, @Stanford_ChEMH, and @StanfordBioX. 🔗 https://t.co/t3nv2W85xd
