Check out our new work on how microglia interact with the vasculature through astrocyte end feet using the @AllenInstitute #MICrONS cortical mm^3 dataset! Had a great time working with @Gazz4_Science, @BradASutherland and @SorenGrubb to produce this work!
1/ 🔥 Exciting findings from our collaboration between @UTAS_, @SeattleChildrens, and @uni_copenhagen! We've discovered a new way #microglia interact with 🧠 vasculature, which could reshape our understanding of their role in #brain health and disease. 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited that our paper showing microglia associating with pericytes in the CNS has been published! Make sure to check it out below!
Pleased to share our latest paper on microglia pericyte associations published in Glia. Great work by a great team @CathFoster_ @Jake_Cashion_ @ziebs83 @jomaree @DrLachlanSBrown and the twitterless Gary Morris & others. @WickingDementia @UTAS_MedSci #PEM doi.org/10.1002/glia.24371

Thank you to the @AusNeuroSoc conference for allowing me to present my research! Had a great time learning about the research being conducted around Australasia and being able to network in person again! Enjoyed being able to attend with most of the Perivascular Lab!

So excited I can finally share this amazing image of microglia (green) associating with pericytes (magenta) along capillaries for #FluorescenceFriday

Check out our new pre print where we identify and characterise microglia associating with pericytes (PEM) throughout the CNS and that the number of the microglia associating with pericytes and the vasculature is reduced in Alzheimer’s disease! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
