I just reached out to my senators about the NIH situation. If you need to find out how much impact NIH has in your state in terms of dollars in and their economic impact here's a link: www.unitedformedicalresearch.org/nih-in-your-...
NIH In Your State - United For Medical Research
Select a state on the map to see the impact of NIH funding across America.

NIH funding supports the vast majority of all biomedical research in the United States. Virtually every advance in American medicine and biological science comes from NIH. This is a blow against American science.
Call Congress, 202-224-3121.
Call Congress, 202-224-3121.
All NIH study sections canceled indefinitely. This will halt science and devastate research budgets in universities.

Big day for single cell and neuroscience. Trio of single cell perspective pieces discussing applications, opportunities, challenges, and validation of single cell and spatial genomics in neuroscience are out now in Nature Neuroscience. Links in thread below.👇 1/n

This is especially relevant given reactive astrocyte localization and abundance! Thanks for pointing out
'In vertebrates, some astrocytes may even be involved in the presentation of antigens to infiltrating T cells. This places them as key initiators of the earliest response to inflammation, without the need for a myeloid cell intermediary.'

Emerging roles of astrocytes as immune effectors in the central nervous system
The astrocyte, a major glial cell type in the central nervous system (CNS), is widely
regarded as a functionally diverse mediator of homeostasis. During development and
throughout adulthood, astrocyte...

Grateful to be a part of this talented group of #glia biologists. Go follow!
some great starter packs for the #glia, #astrocyte, #oligodendrocyte, #microglia, #neuro researcher: gliasky, astrocytesky, microglia
But if you also like interactions between celltypes, please help this starter pack get started. Maybe someone can connect all of us in a feed?
