Congratulations to Cole Sitron et al. from Ulrich Hartl's group @mpibiochem.bsky.social on this beautiful study exploring the interaction of α-synuclein aggregates with the ESCRT-III complex, now out in @cp-molcell.bsky.social - it was a pleasure to contribute to the project.

Trilled to share our new work🥳We show that age-related hyperactivation of the EPS8/RAC signaling pathway drives protein aggregation and neurodegeneration — hallmarks of Huntington’s disease and ALS. #proteostasis #aging #neurodegenerativediseases

New lab preprint: Leveraging the updated AutoGaitA toolbox, we revealed distinct species-specific mechanisms to generate propulsion during walking and the conserved pattern of age-related propulsive decline from flies to humans. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Delighted to be part of the new Research Unit on Organismal Proteostasis. Thanks to @thevilchezlab.bsky.social for all the hard work on putting together this consortium, and to the #DFG for funding our research!

Happy to share our new preprint, where we find that anle138b reduces Huntingtin inclusions and improves disease phenotypes in #Huntington’sDisease models, showing its potential as an HD treatment. Great work by Miguel Padilha and several wonderful collaborators including thevilchezlab.bsky.social

Mitochondria a safe haven for aggregation-prone proteins? #neurodegeneration. #Parkinson. Find our latest manuscript in @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Interested in the molecular mechanisms of neurodegeneration? 📢 We are looking for a PhD student interested in studying the role of TDP-43 in genome stability and the DNA damage response! Apply via this fantastic PhD Programme until April 3 👇

Our new paper shows that targeted stimulation of a subtype of cortical inhibitory neurons can ameliorate motor deficits in Huntington’s disease mice. A great collab with @irinadudanova.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

How do different cortical neuron types contribute to circuit dysfunction in #Huntington’s disease? Check out our new collaborative study with @takakikomiyama.bsky.social, spearheaded by Sonja Blumenstock, now out as a preprint. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
