Looking forward to hearing from this amazing line up of scientists, especially Chiu lab postdoc @Liwen_Deng811! She has an exciting story about microbe interactions with itch neurons, and is going on the job market soon!
Hear from a talented lineup of immunologists next Wednesday, Sept 18 featuring @zurisullivan, @alexwellsies, @DjenetBousbaine, @ValeriaMReyes, @CicaCanesso, @ScientistBecs, @Liwen_Deng811, & @NZanluqui. Register: bit.ly/ScrippsLeaders

A great summary of our recent GSDME work by Zhou et al., @dukenus, and a useful outline of therapeutic modalities that could target this protein in #neuro @himanishbasu @IsaacChiuLab🧠 linkinghub.elsevier.com/retr…

Excited to share our work out today in @NeuroCellPress ! Congrats to @dylanvneel @himanishbasu and co-authors! We find the innate immune protein GSDME drives mito-damage and axon loss in neurons, and GSDME KO is protective in models of #ALS urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2…

Was great sharing my work yesterday with the #celldeath community @harvardmed. Thanks to @j_ubellacker and @CellDeathLab for the generous invitation. Encourage anyone interested in the cell and molecular biology of disease to attend next month!
The Boston Cell Death Initiative is excited to re-launch our seminars after a COVID hiatus. Join us for #ferroptosis & #pyroptosis talks from Whitney Henry (@weinberglab @WhiteheadInst @MIT) & @dylanvneel (@IsaacChiuLab @harvardmed) on March 6th at 4PM. hsph.harvard.edu/cell-death-…

Congrats to @felipe_pinh0 and co-authors on our recent work, now out in @Nature! We show that pathogens talk directly to nociceptor neurons to hijack CGRP-RAMP1 signaling, and alter the course of bacterial meningitis. Well done everyone! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
