Investigative records paint the picture of a professor who took financial and personal advantage of his students for years – from paying him rent to making them clean up after his dog – and grew vengeful when they spoke out about his alleged crimes.

New research from @RiesslandLab & colleagues reports that the #Parkinsons-associated gene FAM49B is critically expressed in microglia of the human substantia nigra pars compacta & it is downregulated with age & PD (associated with⬆️microglial activation)

rdcu.be/eUfxz Outstanding work by Taylor and Jon! @SBUNeurobiology We profiled senescence hallmarks in 5 human brain cell types, revealing distinct signatures & regulators. Key finding: SATR TFAP4 is decreased in #Parkinson's tissue. potential for targeted therapies.
This is a true breakthrough. Amazing!
#CARTcells for #DIPG #DMG clinical trial (1st arm) results are out today. Full Tweetorial coming, but first want to share the story of a patient whose #DIPG has disappeared for over 3 years. It is a milestone and moment of hope on a journey filled with so much grief.
“There’s a lot of loss that led to this research,” Drew’s dad said. “I hope those families know that this success is because of them.”

Congratulations to Dr. Zach Hobel, who beautifully defended his dissertation!!! Well done!!! The lab and I are so proud of everything you've accomplished!
My wonderful lab at @SBUNeurobiology @CNSD_SBU! Today: flower-shirt-day! 🌺🌼🪷
Amazing! Wai did 200miles and still looks so relaxed! A real hero! Respect. 👏👏👏 #parkinsons research and awareness!

Please share!
The applications are open for this year's BRITE postdoctoral seminar series! We are excited to host three postdoctoral researchers to present their work with us here at SBU.

Wai Law's run in support of the Hartman Center for #Parkinson's Research kicks off this Friday at 9am! He will be #running 200 miles in 48 hours this #LaborDayWeekend
Wai is amazing! Every year he does these super-human runs to raise awareness for #parkinsons disease. Go Wai! 👏🏃
RUNNING FOR A CAUSE: Wai Law says he started #running for Parkinson #research after the father of a close running partner died of the disease in 2017.

Amazing support for Parkinson's disease research!
Department friends Wai Law and Dennis Almodovar are preparing for another jaw droppingly long run in support of the Thomas Hartman Center for Parkinson's Research. You can join them this Saturday at 7am in the P Lot for a prep run (or walk)! 🏃♀️tinyurl.com/2283x2sj

Big Nature paper this week on improved lifespan (in mice!) using an antibody to block IL11
Old mice without IL11 even look healthier

Why do most dopamine neurons die shortly after transplantation and how can we fix it? Excited to see our story out at Cell. Congrats to @TaeWanKim0 & SoYeon Koo @MSKCancerCenter and to all the other collaborators who made this work possible. cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…
