💬 "Why do cells that function normally for years stop working?" We speak to Professor Elizabeth Fisher (@uclqsion.bsky.social) about what drives her research. www.ucl.ac.uk/brain-scienc...

Another fulfilling week for The Greensmith Lab (+ colleagues from other DNMD groups) hosting their annual Work Experience at UCL QSIoN. The Summer Students were able to get a taste of scientific life, with hands-on experience, learning key skills eg. pipetting, cell culture, immunostaining and more!

We are pleased to share an exciting new research opportunity for a clinician with a neurology background to join the London Mitochondrial Team, focusing on innovative MRI techniques in mitochondrial disease: www.ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/...

The project, led by Professor Mary Reilly, will aim to: 🔬 Develop MRI tools to spot early muscle changes 📊 Gather real-world insights from people living with CMT 🏥 Train more centres in the UK to run CMT clinical trials to increase access and participation @uclqsneuromuscular.bsky.social

Next UCL ALS-FTD Network Seminars - 25 July at 4pm, Gilliatt LT, QSH. 'Investigating pathomechanisms in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease using mouse models and iPSCs' 'Generation of a universal human cellular platform for drug testing in ALS' 'A forebrain organoid model of progranulin-associated FTD'

Members of the Houlden Lab at UCL Queen Square IoN recently took part in the Celebrating Research at UCLH Open Day! It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with patients, families, and the wider public - sharing the latest advances in neurogenetics. #UCLHResearch #Neurogenetics

Delighted that the department has been awarded Gold for Laboratory Efficiency Assessment Framework (LEAF) 2025. We were commended on the labs signage, management and sustainable initiatives across the whole department.
