Replying to @saezlab @NatureNeuro
This has been a wonderful journey decoding the MS lesion rim dynamics using paired transcriptomics. Big thanks to @Cels121 and @PauBadiaM for carrying this over the finish line! Great collaboration with @saezlab and happy to see this back2back with the work of @EggenBart lab.
Returning from our annual society meeting with a bunch of new ideas, great catching up with friends and colleagues. Wonderful platform talks about MS and IBM transcriptomics by team members @TimTrobisch and @SvenWischnewski - well done! dgnvirtualmeeting.org/home/d…
Thanks to all lab and division members, mentors and supporters of our research over the past years - I feel immensely proud to have met wonderful people along my path and look very much forward to tackling the scientific questions that lay in front of us! @Neuro_MA @schirmerlab

And, examining subcortica lesions identified niches such as perivascular spaces, the inflamed lesion rim, and the lesion core that are associated with the glial scar and a cilia-forming astrocyte subtype

Two fantastic papers were published today in @NatureNeuro highlighting some major advances in understanding MS using spatial transcriptomics 🧬
I feel very lucky to have the chance to write a News & Views article about them! ⭐️ nature.com/articles/s41593-0…

Our work with @schirmerlab in multiple sclerosis (MS) is out today in @NatureNeuro. We investigated lesion progression and cell-cell communication events in MS using snRNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics 🧠 See below ⬇️

WebAtlas for visualising single cell & spatial data online is out: rdcu.be/dRsKu With @Muzz_Haniffa @BioinfoTongLI @Dave_Horsfall+co, we aimed to open up sc/spatial data to biologists & clinicians without coding experience/infrastructure. Rambling🧵on why this matters

Thrilled to feature our latest review on iron scavenging and myeloid cell polarization with a particular focus on multiple sclerosis and functions of iron-loaded macrophages at the rims of chronic active MS lesions. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Very happy to see this paper out in @NAR_Open !! Congrats to @vicpaton on his first publication, and big thanks to all coauthors and @JulioSaezRod for the opportunity to co-supervise this work
Our workflow, FLOP, exploring the impact of filtering, normalization, and differential expression on functional analysis is now published in @NAR_Open. doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkae552

Proud of the @GlialRede+@redglial (@fernandes_lab+myself) symposium on #MultipleSclerosis from different #glial perspectives,cherry of a superb #FENS2024: #Patrick_Küry,#Mendanha_Falcao,@schirmerlab & Alana_Hoffmann (@MironLab) showed us many great actors to know+treat #MS.
