Brain capillary in an acute cortical slice. Imaged by me 6 years ago today (according to my phone).

Jean-Martin Charcot was born in Paris on 29 November 1825. @ajlees marks the bicentenary of Charcot's birth by reflecting on how his scientific legacy continues to shape neurology today. https://t.co/ExO6Vy9Hny

Papers like this which demonstrate that alpha synuclein can act potently as prions, are exactly why you need to have proportionate safety measures in labs doing this kind of work. If you work on this and don’t have safety measures ask why! Great paper btw.

Thrilled see our paper out in @Nature ! 🤩 Wonderful collaboration with @GoCasteloBranco. Kudos to my amazing postdoc @Di_0579 at @YaleEngineering and Leslie Kirby from Goncalo's lab @karolinskainst. Huge team science with @YaleMed @UCSF @ASTARsg https://t.co/IF7XbnS1q0

Check out our new resource paper @CellStemCell, where we present a brain organoid atlas of human neurodevelopmental disorders. Surprising was that nearly all patients had abnormal organoids. The challenge was aligning defects to clinical. https://t.co/0YtGTd4Dwb

Today, I teach the (graduate) kids about long-term memory. I'm bringing along my 3D print of HM's brain, made from post-mortem histology. #neuroscience

Excited to share our @CurrentBiology Primer written with @AudreyChagnot in the Brain-Body Interactions special issue! We discuss how the BBB works, what happens when it breaks down, and why this matters for brain and body health. @UKDRI @TheBHF https://t.co/QnwkVuHEWh

An amazing collection of brain-body interaction articles in this special issue. Love the beautiful vagus nerve on the cover by Andreas Vesalius https://t.co/K1El0JuJDX

As the 2025 competition ratios come out I have no doubt we will see people stating what a huge success this is for psychiatry or that this is the result of the ChoosePsychiatry campaign I’ve shared my views previously why this is not the case - we need reform of recruitment

Specialty training competition ratios for 2025 released. An awful day to be a doctor out of training or a medical student. Frozen progression is a further nail in the coffin of a career in medicine in the UK. https://t.co/gJAwr98zeQ
