If you’re curious about how myelin shapes neural circuits, check out Wendy’s lab! Absolutely phenomenal scientist & person doing amazing work, and I can’t wait to see the cool science that will come from her group.

Very excited to share that I’m starting my lab at the Krembil Brain Institute @kbi-uhn.bsky.social at UHN and the University of Toronto! If you’re interested in motor learning and circuit plasticity, please reach out - we are hiring! www.motor-plasticity.org 1/

Super stoked to share that I’m starting my lab at UHN @dkjei-uhn.bsky.social / @kbi-uhn.bsky.social and the University of Toronto! If you’re interested in neuron-myelin interactions in circuit maturation and cognition, please reach out - we are hiring! www.oligodendrocyte.org 1/

This whole paper is incredibly cool - but this virus work in particular is really exciting!

If you’re interested in the roles of glia in stroke and TBI, kick off #SfN2025 with a minisymposium on Saturday afternoon in room 6B! @droligo.bsky.social and I are also hosting a glia get-together Monday night, sponsored by Avantor and @plasmidsaurus.bsky.social - all glia-inclined are welcome!

ATTN: Two faculty positions are available in my department (neuroscience) at the University of Minnesota. This is a general search with no topic focus. November 20th application deadline. Apply here: hr.umn.edu/jobs/Find-Job Assistant Prof job code: 364920 Associate/Full Prof job code: 364921

If you’re interested in glia and you’ll be at SfN in San Diego, please join us!

Just a friendly reminder that we’re hiring for the Department of Neuroscience at The Ohio State University!! 🧠 The start of application review has been moved to this Friday, 10/17, but we’ll continue accepting applications until the position is filled! neurojobs.sfn.org/job/39081/te...

Thrilled to share this work from my postdoc with Tom Carmichael, available online @ Neuron! Long story short: we find even more evidence that all reactive astrocytes are not equal, and we can take advantage of those differences to improve repair after stroke. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Thrilled to share our new paper @cp-cell.bsky.social: “Microglia–astrocyte crosstalk regulates synapse remodeling via Wnt signaling.” This work demonstrates the necessity of glia–glia communication and coordination during synapse remodeling. 🔗 www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... Faust et al., Cell 2025

I've been really hoping to see more manuscript threads here on 🦋, so here comes one!!! This is brand new work from the lab that took us in very unexpected directions and to exciting findings led by the amazing @emily-hill.bsky.social. Preprint here www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... and 🧵below:

Thrilled to announce that my lab is now open at Ohio State! We study astrocytes as gene therapy targets for brain repair after ischemic stroke and in vascular dementia, developing new viral tools along the way. If you're interesting in joining or collaborating, please reach out! gleichmanlab.com

Excited to share our new paper! Our new paper in @NatureComms reveals how parvalbumin (PV) interneurons regulate stroke recovery by enhancing network synchronization. Read here: nature.com/articles/s41... #Neuroscience #StrokeRecovery #BrainPlasticity

Very happy to share the link to the full article of my recent work www.science.org/stoken/autho... Had fun visualizing this complex dataset! Excited to hear your thoughts and explore new insights or other creative ways to reuse the data!

There are lots of us missing, but so many joining so quickly Please do share, and comment below to be added go.bsky.app/5f2V6L6 (microglia starter pack also here by @mancusorenzo.bsky.social - bsky.app/starter-pack...)

go.bsky.app/Lyzro3M !WELCOME! thought we might need a starter pack for all those coming over from the birdhouse - here's a GliaSky list. apologies for missing many of you - please do reply to get added and remember to repost so the newbies can find us!

Thrilled to announce that you can now purchase virus from Addgene expressing our improved astrocytic Cre, GfaABC1D-Cre-4x6T! We used miRNA targeting to minimize off-target expression. www.addgene.org/196410/
