1/n Some time ago my colleague, excellent cook, and friend Ivan told me: "Cacio e pepe is the recipe that I screw up more often. Let's make a project studying systematically the physics of that sauce". Prepare to get cheesy, I'm glad to share the Cacio e paper preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2501.00536

Preprint alert: Using human microneurography protocols in PatchSeq experiments on pig DRGs we identify the molecular identity of human dermal CMi-fibers (sleeping nociceptors). We provide an integrated pig-human-more transcriptomic atlas and identify OSMR and SST as marker, backed by human expts.

People living with multiple sclerosis #MS could be prescribed personalised treatment in future, helped by research published in Neuron today in which Prof Anna Williams and colleagues studied more than half a million brain cells. @mssocietyuk regeneration-repair.ed.ac.uk/personalised... #CRM
