Inflammation during viral infection can rouse dormant cancer cells
Sometimes, cancer cells that have spread become ‘dormant’ but can start proliferating again later. A cue that can reactivate them has been discovered.

Non-invasive neuromodulation ⚡🧠 often lacks mechanistic evidence supporting its clinical efficacy. Recently, I (helped 😎) led this study exploring how TAPS* may treat Essential Tremor. We measured thalamic LFPs during human DBS surgeries to test how the VIM thalamus responds to TAPS. 🧪
