We are so proud to announce our latest PhD from the lab – Annalisa Cavillini.
Welcome to Sally Salomonsson who has just started an MRC-funded PhD with us to work on C9orf72
Our latest paper showing G-quadruplex-binding small molecules reduce pathology in C9orf72 iPSC-neurons and Drosophila models is just out in EMBO Molecular Medicine – early online version can be found here
Our lab head Adrian is giving a talk on C9orf72 at the University of Oslo on Friday Nov 10 as part of a workshop “Model Systems to Investigate Neurodegeneration”
Our PI Dr Isaacs is giving a lecture at University of Edinburgh on 26th of September 2017 as part of UE Neuroscience Seminar. The talk is titled “C9orf72 FTD and ALS – Mechanisms and therapeutics” and will be given at Lecture Theatre A, Chancellors Building, 13:00.
Our lab head Dr Adrian Isaacs will be giving a talk on our C9orf72 work at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference in London in July
Our news and views article on the development of new biomarkers for C9orf72 FTD/ALS is now out in EMBO Molecular Medicine.
Our PhD student Jack Humphrey reported that TDP-43 but not FUS affects cryptic splicing. Read it here at BMC Genomics.
Our third year PhD student Thomas Moens recently published a review on genetic models of C9orf72FTD/ALS. Read it here.
