Honoured to welcome Nobel Laureate Prof. James Rothman to @OxfordDPAG for the Sherrington Prize Lecture—an inspiring talk on the science of synaptic transmission and vesicle fusion. A memorable visit! 🧠👏

The most important habit in life:
Sleep.
It’s why you feel tired, unhappy, and unmotivated.
Here’s how you optimize your sleep (backed by science):

A poignant final message from the Leeds Rhinos legend and MND campaigner recorded before his death for a special BBC documentary 'There's Only One Rob Burrow'

We are so sad to hear of the death of Rob Burrow. Like Doddie, Rob has been a true inspiration for people living with MND. Our thoughts are with Lindsey, their children and all Rob's family and friends.

Today, I’m thrilled have our lab’s work featured on the cover of @Nature
In this article, we have developed a therapeutic approach for a severe condition called Timothy syndrome. This has been a long journey. It started with making hiPS cell-derived neurons in 2D cultures 15 years ago when I was a postdoc and continued with later creating in the lab #organoid and then #assembloid models of this disease caused by a mutation in a calcium channel.
Over time, these human cellular models and the biological insights we gained enable us to design a therapeutic strategy, which we validated in vivo following circuit integration of patient-derived organoids into the rat brain.
Grateful for the incredible work led by @XiaoyuChenxy and @fikribirey in the lab! And the many close collaborators who participated to this line of research over the years.

Hello from Lady GABA!
GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter. GABA decreases the activity of neurons that have the GABA receptor.
Lady GABA is inspired from Lady GAGA and is releasing the neurotransmitter GABA.
