This month marks 30 years since the Brook Regional Neuroscience unit, founded in 1950, and the Guys/Maudsley Neuroscience unit, founded in 1952, were amalgamated to create King's Neuroscience Centre at @KingsCollegeNHS #Kings30

Delighted to see this paper out - it was a real collaboration between researchers, brain bank teams and neuropathologists.

Really looking forward to Brains for Dementia Research exhibiting at the ARUK Conference #ARUKConf25!

This year at #BNS25 I’ve showed my work on brain injury. Following my work the sustained and increased expression of Bax and survivin in post-mortem cases of traumatic brain injury (#TBI), ranges from as early as 15 minutes to 16 years post-injury, highlighting the prolonged impact of TBI on #apoptotic and survival pathways in the brain. Bax, a pro-apoptotic protein, promotes neuronal #celldeath, while #survivin, an anti-apoptotic protein, counteracts this process to support cell survival. Their concurrent expression suggests a dynamic and persistent attempt by the brain to balance injury-induced cell death with neuroprotection, even in chronic phases of TBI. This prolonged molecular response may contribute to ongoing neurodegeneration, inflammation, and repair mechanisms, offering insights into the long-term pathophysiology of TBI and potential therapeutic targets. This work was possible thanks to the donors and their families as well as the teams at @LNDBrainBank, @KingsCollegeLon and @KingsIoPPN
