Massive 10+ year effort in lab spearheaded by @leonardoaparrar and Kayal (secret account 🤔). Unreal cover by @EmmaVIDALL that says it all.

2023's final issue is out! cell.com/neuron/current Cover story is from @Roy_Lab_Thinks's lab revealing an unexpected physiologic role for α-synuclein phosphorylation in clustering synaptic vesicles and restricting neurotransmitter release. Read it here cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

...but as G. Costanza would say: is this "Significant Shrinkage"?

Neurons transmit signals through synaptic vesicle release, but the nanoscale dynamics of this process have been unclear. In a new Science study, researchers report using time-resolved cryo–electron tomography to visualize synaptic vesicle dynamics in situ and propose a unified…

Incredible by @OdedRechavi ... an AI thingy-bop that reviews your manuscript with a very high bar and takes no prisoners. But you can do this in your pajamas and no one gets to see it. Takes a while but once you get the results you'll know why: qedscience.com


"Even short, regular check-ins can make a difference. Time spent helping students to solve problems, or simply asking how a project is going, will pay dividends. It also saves time later by catching small problems before they become big ones" nature.com/articles/d4158…

🚨New in Lancet Neurology: Autopsy study of aducanumab in #Alzheimer’s shows superficial cortical Aβ cleared, but deeper persists. ARIA showed inflammation+ microinfarcts in leptomeningeal/penetrating vessels. Some path is PET-invisible. @DrNeuroChic authors.elsevier.com/a/1lxn85FFzL...

I went to #Chile 25 years ago - when Internet wasn't a thing - and this is all I needed to know. It went just fine.

"So far, just the headline findings have been released. Scientists say the full study needs to be published and assessed by independent experts to properly assess what has been achieved" Umm...yes. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Slowly getting ready to finally submit this paper. Would love feedback. In essence, we mapped and tracked EV transfer of a-synuclein single molecules from neurons to neurons. @Roy_Lab_Thinks @christlet biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
