So excited to share the work of the fantastic Katarzyna, 1st 🧪PhD student of my lab 🧠, out in @natureneuro.bsky.social 🥂🥳 Cheers to the team, thanks to our precious collaborators and support from @braincanada.bsky.social #CIHR @fondsrechercheqc.bsky.social #newPI www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New RCSI research has uncovered how T cells may contribute to blood clot risk in inflammatory bowel disease. The findings, published in @NatureComms also suggest a potential treatment approach to manage this risk. Read more 🔗 www.rcsi.com/dublin/news-... #RCSIdiscover @rcsi-research.bsky.social

A gene linked to age-related cognitive decline, APOE ε4, is also associated with cognitive advantage below the age of 50 in women, according to data from the @ukbiobank.bsky.social, a finding that could explain APOE ε4’s persistence in the human genome. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Thanks @blacoste.bsky.social! I want to highlight that it's a new peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary open access journal: #Glia #Health #Research 🧪 All articles submitted before April 30, 2026 are 🚨 free, no publication fees! 🤑

Nature research paper: CD45-PET is a robust, non-invasive tool for imaging inflammation https://go.nature.com/4jmStIF

A new collaborative study led by FutureNeuro researchers at RCSI offers hope for predicting and preventing the development of epilepsy following traumatic brain injury. The research identifies an important role for a brain receptor called P2X7. More ➡️ www.rcsi.com/dublin/news-... #RCSIdiscover

Check out this paper and tool that we worked on with @sloanlab.bsky.social and Ye Zhang. Think of it as 'the Barres datasets 2.0' Lots of input and feedback from the amazing #Glia community.

The blood-brain barrier can prevent therapeutic drugs from reaching the brain. Researchers in #ScienceAdvances have identified a peptide that increases the barrier’s permeability, showing potential for more effective drug delivery to treat brain diseases. scim.ag/4jhnWf6

New RCSI research has explained how our body clock influences the inflammatory process of the immune system. The findings could pave the way for time-targeted treatments for inflammatory diseases such as arthritis. Read more ➡️ www.rcsi.com/dublin/news-... #RCSIdiscover

I'm launching a new career as a demotivational speaker (thanks to everyone who got in touch this morning - it's nice to hear it strikes a chord) www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

New research has found that closer immune-cancer cell interactions predict better disease-free survival rates in stage III colorectal cancer. The study was led by Professor Jochen Prehn, Investigator at the Beaumont RCSI Cancer Centre. 🔗 doi.org/10.1002/path... #RCSIdiscover

And somehow I missed it going live last week 😂 - our #zebrafish glial-vascular paper is available for those finterested! One of the best ways to end 2024 as a #newPI www.cell.com/iscience/ful...
