Post 1/5 I’m delighted to share that Super-Resolution Microscopy: Methods and Protocols is now available through Springer Protocols / Methods in Molecular Biology. 📘 link.springer.com/book/10.10… #SuperResolutionMicroscopy #Microscopy

For the first time, the Australasian Neuroscience Society, Biological Psychiatry Australia Australian Cognitive Neuroscience Society are coming together for a landmark joint meeting: NeuroAlliance 2026! The call for symposia closes 27th April DETAILS: neuroalliance26.eventsair.si…

The continued underspend of the MRFF is a missed opportunity, impacting our future health, economic prosperity, and biomedical sovereignty. Please support Dr. Monique Ryan MP's campaign calling on the government to fully release the MRFF funds: moniqueryan.com.au/medical_r…

Amazing work, so important for the community! Congratulations Giordano and Team

Chuffed to see our paper with my buddy @yeo_lab finally published in @Nature. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Very grateful to @fedezampa, Susie, and Dave from my lab, and @SammiSison , @EricKofman, and @pratibhajagann_ from Gene's lab. What did we find? ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

The Australasian Course in Advanced Neuroscience (ACAN) is back! ACAN is an intensive practical based neuroscience course for EMCRs providing deep theoretical practical insight, helping you build skills to take your research to the next level. Apply: ans.org.au/acan

#CAMAND2025 meeting was amazing! x.com/DehorterLab/status/199…

🌟 How can we make #neuroscience more inclusive? Join the ALBA-IBRO Social at #SfN2025 to network with fellow #neuroscientists and discuss this important question! 📅 16 Nov 2025 | In-person 📍Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina 🔗 ibro.org/event/alba-ibro-soc… @network_alba

Hey ALBA Peeps! 🚀 ALBA Diversity Week 2025 starts today! This week, we celebrate diversity and intersectionality in neuroscience by highlighting key activities and sharing valuable resources. 📆 Today, we kick off with the ALBA-IBRO Diversity Podcast: From Postdoc to PI. Listen to early-career neuroscientists share their journeys, challenges, and strategies to make it to the PI level, tackle resource limitations, and build inclusive lab cultures. 🎧 Listen now: loom.ly/N1a1jSg This podcast is supported by @IBROorg & produced by The @LonelyPipette 👀 Stay tuned all week on ALBA's social media channels as we revisit achievements and launch new initiatives. Share our posts to join the #GlobalDiversityAwarenessMonth celebration. #ALBADiversityWeek @FENSorg @SfNtweets @ecnptweets @bita137 @Dalla_Christina @carmensandi10 @franciru1 @ViolettaZujovic @srikipedia @mahmoudbukar @JQIpLab @DipeshChaudhury @JacquieBracher @cheahpikesee @AlicjaPuscian

QBI welcomes Dr John Lee, our new Ross Maclean Senior Research Fellow whose translational research into motor neurone disease (MND) has already reached clinical testing. A compound he began studying during his PhD in 2009 recently completed Phase 1B trials after more than 15 years of development. He is also collaborating with a New Zealand company to design liquid drug formulations tailored for MND patients who lose the ability to swallow. The Ross Maclean Fellowship established by Jeff Maclean AM in memory of his father, Index Group founder Ross Maclean who lost his battle with MND in 2005, offers crucial support to advance these ambitious projects. “Funding is always scarce in research – this fellowship gives me the opportunity to push drug programs closer to clinical trials while also collaborating with QBI neuroscientists on new discovery-based ideas,” says Dr Lee.

Congratulations to QBI Emeritus Professor Perry Bartlett, who has been awarded $1.8 million from @FightMND to progress his Phase II clinical trial evaluating the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of a drug called NUN-004 in patients with motor neurone disease (MND). "This program demonstrates that basic neuroscientific discoveries made in Australia can be developed all the way through from preclinical studies into product manufacture into promising clinical trials that are at the forefront internationally," says Emeritus Professor Bartlett.
