🎉Thrilled to share that our second paper of the summer has just been published in PLOS ONE! 😃 Six Providence College students are co-authors on this study, where we investigated the role of the mTORC1 pathway in the development of microglia in a mouse model of NPC journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

🎉 Exciting new findings from our lab at Providence College are published in Scientific Reports! We show how PTEN deficiency in Purkinje cells disrupts dendritic development and behavior. A huge thanks to Lindsay and our outstanding students for their contributions! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Grateful for my enthusiastic and productive lab students at Providence College. This past academic year, we moved Science forward by working on 4 primary projects, presenting at conferences, participating in an outreach event, and submitting 2 manuscripts. Plus a bonus visit from Dr. Beth Stevens! ☺️

Today, Providence College's students Kathryn Ditrano '26, Siena Brazier '26, Reagan Dennett '26, and Carly Immerman '26, had the opportunity to talk to the public about our neuroscience research at the Pawtucket Brain Fair. It was a great experience and a lovely day! 😃🤩 @friarbiology.bsky.social

A true highlight of last week was chatting with @markowenmartin.bsky.social on Matters Microbial. Come for bacteria eating other bacteria, stay for my earnest take on why undergraduate research is important and how higher ed administrators can & should support faculty www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL3v...

This is the thing: People PAY for healthcare through health insurance. But health insurance companies are not in the business of providing healthcare. They are in the business of making money. And they are making money with a trapped economy. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel for them.

Interesting paper about #microglia in NPC disease! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
