My new article on @sciencerabbit.bsky.social discussing why women make up 2/3 of all Alzheimer’s disease patients.

Today’s STEM Day at the capital was a success! My students worked so hard on making posters that were accessible and highlighted all the important work we are doing! @projbridgeco.bsky.social @cuanschutz.bsky.social

Check out this article on @sciencerabbit.bsky.social giving a deep dive into The Link Between Shingles and Stroke sciencerabbit.org/2025/02/20/s...

OUT NOW: Human enteric α-defensin 5 interacts with colonic epithelial receptor P2Y11 to induce filopodia and promote Shigella infection by Kai Ye & co www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

“Shock and awe” at NIH returns to a new version of routine existential terror… www.science.org/content/arti...

Now that we’re on Bluesky, it’s a good time to bring back #badsciencedrawings – a collection of figures that prove that science is more science than art. Before Biorender, all we had was MS Paint and a dream. But ovals, lines, and lightning bolts were all we needed Morales-Botello et al., 2012

How much of age associated #microglia dysfunction in #Alzheimers disease is due to activation of LINE retrotransposons? Fun #openaccess study exploring this hypothesis - worth a read. #neuroinflammation #neurosky

In #neuroinflammation, lineage matters….check out this preprint of long term engraftment of blood derived- #macrophages vs brain resident #microglia in #TBI # neuroskyence

Microglia-Dependent and Independent Modulation of Brain Lipid Metabolism in Alzheimer's Disease Revealed by Pharmacological and Genetic Microglial Depletion

Exciting new discovery from colleagues @stanfordmedicine.bsky.social, astrocyte metabolism compromised by amyloid and tau oligomers leading to insufficient support for neurons. Possible new target for treating AD. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

👏 to Tetsuo Hasegawa & others of Clatworthy lab & beyond for this amazing analysis of macrophage-nociceptor interactions within the joint: the blood-joint barrier, "equipped to sense circulating stimuli & telegraph their presence via pain" #neuroskyence #PainResearch www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Fluorescent Friday brought to you by microglia (🟢) surrounding HSV-1 infection (🟣) and counterstained with DAPI (🔵). Taken from our recently published paper. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

This threaded discussion on sex differences in mechanisms leading to Alzheimer’s disease and neurodegeneration is worth a read. #microglia, #neuroinflammation

I love how kind everyone is on Bluesky! X is giving #reviewer2 vibes and Bluesky is like a kind reviewer 1! #Academia #endFTD

I created a simple flow chart to help my lab trainees choose the most appropriate stats test in Prism (*for single-factor comparisons only). Feel free to share with your group if you think it could be helpful first start.

I like microglia and I like electron microscopy. Today my new review on microglia ultrastructure came out on Open Biology. doi.org/10.1098/rsob... I tried to do a guide I wish I had on my PhD. Thankful for all the people that have taught me microglia EM #microglia #electronmicroscopy #tremblaylab

Just joined and happy to see our recent work highlighted here!

Persistently primed microglia restrict the reactivation of latent cytomegalovirus at the expense of neuronal synaptic connectivity #singlecell https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5144336/latest

I’ll start off strong by highlighting the wonderful work we are doing over here!
