New TYP lab publication led by PhD student @alexlish.bsky.social out today in @cp-cellreports.bsky.social! We present a reproducible neuron-astrocyte-microglia tri-culture model to better reproduce intercellular interactions in Alzheimer's disease. Read more here: www.cell.com/cell-reports...

Amazing team science effort, led by Marius Wernig’s group, to develop a silencing-resistant transgene cassette that maintains expression following iPSC differentiation. This was major barrier for iPSC-based experiments. Thanks to CZI for funding the research! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Silencing of transgenes during iPSC differentiation is a frequent problem. 🧬🫢 Check out the piggyBac system below, which has resisted silencing in many protocols across many labs. 💪 Excited that our lab could contribute to this team effort led by @tuenaka.bsky.social & Marius Wernig!

Losing sleep over #iPSC transgene silencing after differentiation? Same here — too many times😭 So we built a PiggyBac construct that resists silencing. Expression stays ON, even after differentiation. Our #preprint is out👇 🔗 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Supported by @cziscience.bsky.social
