Excited to share my 2nd first author work from @annamolofskylab.bsky.social. We show that microglial cathepsin B promotes neuronal efferocytosis in 🐟&🐁 🧠 Possible w/ amazing lab members, Dr. Anderson, Dr. Escoubas, Sunny Mula, & Dr. Nakajo. 🙏🏽 More later.

I will say, SJS -> TEN, while rarer, is something I spend a lot of brain space worrying about when starting some of our meds (probably a byproduct of our emphasis on it during training). Glad to see this study and the overlap w/immunity (type I/II IFNs!) w/ therapeutic implications.

Some nice 🔬 tissue-cleared whole body imaging of spike protein distribution in mice.
Adding to evidence of lingering viral protein after viral clearance (in SARS-CoV-2) and preclinical evidence that presence of protein itself can have neurobehavioral consequences. www.cell.com/cell-host-mi...

You wanted starter packs to be searchable. Our engineers are busy keeping us online, so in the meantime, an independent developer built a new searchable library of starter packs. This is the beauty of building in the open 🦋

A neuroimmunology starter pack! Loving how organized the platform is to connect people and scientific/clinical communities.
