Hello world! My first post here, and it's a special one! I'm excited to share that my first piece of work in grad school titled "Microglia Replacement: From Monocytic Origin to Therapy" is now online in Trends in Immunology! Read it here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Read our latest review article out in @thelancetneuro.bsky.social if you want to know more about CSF transport across the different compartments of the brain-meningeal border and its importance for neurological diseases with strong neuroimmune components 😉 authors.elsevier.com/a/1l7l75FFzL...

The @movahedilab.bsky.social lab shows in the @cp-immunity.bsky.social paper that monocytes are capable of efficiently replacing microglia and border-associated macrophages. Congrats for this beautiful work www.cell.com/immunity/ful...

Online now: Border-associated macrophages as gatekeepers of brain homeostasis and immunity

Our special issue on #neuroimmunology is online! Check out the collection, with reviews from @jonykipnis.bsky.social @michellemonje.bsky.social @ugolinis.bsky.social @bethstevenslab.bsky.social @movahedilab.bsky.social Matteoli, Butovsky, Kim, Artis, & Prinz! www.cell.com/immunity/col... #AAI2025

We used microglia replacement to understand the therapeutic and pathologic roles of macrophages in a genetic brain disease 🧠 A 🧵 on my first author work from the Bennett Lab (+ the paper) below! ⬇️ www.cell.com/immunity/ful...

Check out this paper from the Movahedi lab! It’s a great companion to ours - showing the populations of brain macrophages that monocytes can replace. Congrats to first author Jonathan Bastos!

Very happy for having contributed to this amazing study led by Jonathan Bastos and Kia Movahedi. Super cool findings! @sotonbiosciences.bsky.social @cp-immunity.bsky.social @liambc.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
