Stephan’s quintet - a group five galaxies ~280million light years away. Captured from Bethnal Green over six nights

The squid nebula - discovered in 2011 by an amateur astronomer. Captured over five nights from London and Italy

Ink poisoning turned out to be much less of an issue than it seemed when I was a kid

The wizard nebula, captured over several nights from London and an eleventh century Italian watchtower

A global clinical trial for a new Huntington’s disease treatment has posted positive results today, announced by trial sponsor uniQure and UCL scientists Prof Sarah Tabrizi and @profwild.bsky.social @uclqsion.bsky.social @uclbrainscience.bsky.social. Watch on BBC News at One 📺

"Congratulations to the global Huntington's disease community. This result belongs to everyone." @profwild.bsky.social #curehd www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhEx...

Good morning everyone! I have a feeling today is going to be a good day 🌅

A highly preliminary Saturn from my new telescope

The Ghost of Cassiopeia captured over 6 nights from Bethnal Green. It’s interstellar matter interacting with the middle star from the constellation’s W #astrophotography #astronomy

Wow the future turned out amazing. You get to go on the computer every day

I fondly remember my previous incarnation as a kingfisher. Halcyon days

This will be disappointing to many, but it’s the right decision. Regulators consider data. After 6 negative trials it’s time to admit the data don’t support pridopidine as a symptomatic (2006-2015) or disease-modifying (2015-2025) treatment for #HuntingtonsDisease www.dutchnews.nl/businesswire...

New paper from the @hob-lab.bsky.social just published in Journal of Neurology. A step toward more accessible biomarker testing 🩸 link.springer.com/article/10.1... @drl-bo.bsky.social @uclbrainscience.bsky.social @uclqsion.bsky.social

Important paper on accessible biomarkers from @hob-lab.bsky.social. Well done Annabelle Coleman @drl-bo.bsky.social and all.

@goodlawproject.org please could you follow me so I can DM?

Where else are we planning to open HDClarity sites? We are currently in the process of opening recruitment to the study into other countries, including Melbourne, Australia, and Lisbon, Portugal.

How does HDClarity work - and what is a lumbar puncture? 🧵 #Huntingtonsdisease #HDClarity

💬 UCL Huntington’s Disease Centre's @profwild.bsky.social said: “More sensitive tools to measure disease progression are particularly valuable in rare diseases like Huntington’s disease." Access the research here: buff.ly/hCk99kS

A series of digital tests carried out via a smartphone app could enhance the detection of disease progression in #HuntingtonsDisease and improve the efficiency of clinical trials, finds research led by scientists at @uclqsion.bsky.social @ucl-hd.bsky.social and Roche including @profwild.bsky.social

New paper in BRAIN from Team Wild and Roche: A digital motor score for sensitive detection of progression in Huntington’s disease (open access) doi.org/10.1093/brai...

Exciting news regarding new study sites for the HDClarity study 🧵 #HuntingtonsDisease

Congratulations to Richard Ayoade for getting the Pope’s funeral English translation gig. An unexpected choice and an invigorating one

@movedisorder.bsky.social I have written a memoir that should be on interest to the MDS members. To be published May 31 by Cambridge University Press and also on Amazon:

Roche provides an update on tominersen: What’s next for this huntingtin-lowering drug? https://en.hdbuzz.net/427

It's Good News Thursday! UniQure has been granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for AMT-130. Development and review will be expedited. Woohoo! It's given to drugs that could treat a serious condition and have prelim clinical support for solid improvement on clinically significant endpoints.

Unhelpfully helpful Outlook

The words nail and head spring to mind 😔

We had a virtual sit-down with HDBuzz founder, editor emeritus, Huntington’s disease researcher, and neurologist Prof Ed Wild. We laughed, we cried… actually we just laughed. But we also talked about HD research, the positive news from 2024, and Ed’s outlook for 2025. Spoiler alert: it’s hopeful!

We’re back for day 2 of #CHDI2025! We’re kicking things off with some exciting talks on advancing genetic modifiers and how we can advance them toward therapeutics for HD.

Good morning! Day 1 of #CHDI2025 is kicking of NOW! Get ready to follow along for some exciting Huntington’s disease research over the next 3 days.

Hello from Palm Springs! The HDBuzz team are here and ready to report on all of the exciting science that we are going to hear over the next 3 days from HD experts who have travelled from all over the world to be at this meeting. #CHDI2025

The theoretical limit on paper size is A96. At higher A numbers, the paper would be smaller than the nucleus of a carbon atom.

Finally (for now) the owl nebula and surfboard galaxy. I chose this target as a tribute to the late great David Lynch (d.2025) THE OWLS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM Captured 26 Jan 2025 in Bethnal Green #astronomy #astrophotography
