Act now! Main message of the #DraghiReport is simple: SCIENCE, SCIENCE, INNOVATION , INNOVATION, RESEARCH, RESEARCH - sounds like the Lisbon strategy launched in 2000 to transition the European Union to a knowledge-based economy and society by 2010. We lost 14 years. Act now!

The main portal to the data is Codex. For every neuron, one can now query its connectivity, size, neurotransmitter, labels, etc. but also analyze network graphs and find pathways between neurons! CT1 neurons: https://t.co/QhpDTDF2XA Render by @amyneurons 3/6

We expect this study to move sleep problems more into the spotlight. It will also allow us to understand how predictable our research in animal models is. If you are interested please contact us at sleep.gen@radboudumc.nl

Dear Kleefstra syndrome community, @IDefineorg @Kleefstrasyndro @KleefstraSynd, there is still time to take part in our inventory study of your sleep quality & quantity! We know sleep disturbances are a top priority for you and so they are for us.

Tangeraas et al. describe the largest series of BCKDK deficiency patients to date, including responses to dietetic treatment, and argue that this treatable neurodevelopmental disease should be considered for inclusion in newborn screening programs. https://t.co/FVyWN4AvdY

Every time someone says they did a GWAS for a complex trait, my eyes roll so hard you can *hear* them. But every now and again, people do serious validation! A PA-TX collab finds GPI anchor biosynthesis as a regulator of sleep in flies and fish.

Variant-to-gene mapping followed by cross-species identification identifies highly conserved regulators of sleep.

Fantastic that the @SimonsFdn is providing a lifeline for our colleagues in the Ukraine facing unimaginable hardship!
We are proud to support the Ukrainian scientists who have stayed to work in the face of war. -- “It’s important to sustain their research so they can convey that knowledge and skill set to the next generation. Once that’s destroyed, it’s almost impossible to rebuild.”
