Great to be at the 14th @autismeurope.bsky.social International Conference in Dublin and hear the opening speeches sharing common hopes on the impact it can have for the international community. #AEcongress2025

Good morning from Dublin! We're so excited for Day 1 of the #AECongress2025. Come say hello! 👋

So if #longcovid has been linked to reactivation of latent viruses+risk of new infection, it makes sense that there can be neuro degenerative risks. Not comforting at all for people with LC. @putrinolab.bsky.social @virusesimmunity.bsky.social www.psypost.org/a-common-chi...

How Covid can affect the brain—the central role of blood vessel inflammation and microglia—and impact on body-wide inflammation @natureneuro.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Children & young people with #LongCovid have important questions—insightful & often heartbreaking ones. We’ve received so many questions from young people ahead of our event with Dr. @buonsenso.bsky.social, and they remind us why listening is just as important as taking action. #LongCovidAwareness

Looking at what is going on in the world today makes me even more clear on how education for peace is still as vitally important in this day and age as when the UWC movement was set up.

We believe many neuro problems associated with #COVID come from the virus hijacking blood vessels to gain access to the brain. This is what it looks like for me, using super-resolution microscopy. With thanks to @harryspoelstra.bsky.social, combining vascular and neuro to understand #NeuroCovid 💪

I appreciate this response from Ed Yong on why he requests that people mask at his events. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/m...

1/ In March 2023, I received a lumbar puncture. This was key to receiving my chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy #cidp diagnosis. This 🧵 is on my experience with identifying and treating #autoimmunedisease. I'll also be sharing some 🧵s I posted previously on the Other Place.

A team in Exeter has developed a finger-prick test to classify long Covid into three types: weak antibody response, excess immune response, and unclear patterns. Early results suggest it could guide tailored treatments, but larger trials are needed. www.bbc.com/news/article...
