The first patient in Phase 1b trial for Alzheimer's disease has been dosed with the fibrin-targeting immunotherapy. I am deeply grateful to the patients, clinical centers, the team at Therini Bio, and all the scientists in my lab making the foundational discoveries on fibrin in neurological diseases and the first-in-class fibrin-targeting antibody. globenewswire.com/fr/news-re…

Still in 2008, despite the challenging motion effects of breathing and heartbeat, @DavalosLab & @AkassoglouLab did the almost impossible task in imaging microglia acutely & chronically in the spinal cord in vivo for the 1st time: pdf.sciencedirectassets.com/….🤩 #20YearsInVivoMGImaging
