Proposals in Congress would cut NIH funding, weaken ARPA-H, and dismantle NSF’s innovation engine.
But advocacy works. Your voice matters.
The deadline to act is July 21.
Sign on. Email Congress. Reach out. We must do everything we can to protect science.
Details below.

The next Einstein, Curie, or Salk might be sitting in a lab right now, wondering if they should quit.
Don’t let them.
Fund science like the future depends on it…because actually it does.

“Neuroscience is no longer all about neurons”: @NPR
Check out my interview on @npratc where I talk about glial cells and inflammation in XDP! 🧠 @SfNtweets #sfn24 #sfn2024 npr.org/2024/10/07/nx-s1-512…

Did you know that #astrocytes are now regarded as key effectors and propagators of immune signaling? 👀
Learn more from Theodore Fisher (@borderbiologist) & Dr. Shane Liddelow (@LiddelowSA) in their recent @TrendsImmuno review.

ASTROCYTES @ SfN 2024 ROUNDUP
(I'm sure I missed something - please comment down below with more!)
see you about the conference

Very excited to be chairing a session for @SfNtweets this year on glial lipids and metabolism! This means you all have to stay till the very end of SfN and hang with us in Chicago! 🥳
ALT Glial Lipids and Metabolism - Holly K. Gildea Chair: Holly Gildea, PhD Institution: NYU Langone Health Date & Time: Wednesday, October 9, 2–4:30 p.m. Location: MCP Room S105 Theme: Theme B – Neural Excitability, Synapses, and Glia Glia, including astrocytes, microglia, and oligodendrocytes among others, regulate much of the metabolic state of the nervous system. Intercellular communication using lipid metabolites transported, synthesized, or modified by glia has been previously implicated in degeneration, toxicity, and normal brain health. This minisymposium will highlight recent findings in glial metabolism and lipid biology and investigate potential interactions between glia and neurons under stress and at homeostasis.

Result of a rewarding experience to summarize our knowledge on meningeal biology with established experts in the field below. I hope this provides inspiration for further research studies aiming to find the truth. rdcu.be/dVigd

Scotland has detected no cases of cervical cancer in women born between 1988-1996 who were fully vaccinated against HPV between the ages of 12 and 13.

Happy Birthday Ben! Today would’ve been his 70th birthday. A renowned scientist who changed the way we see glia cells and the brain and a wonderful friend and advocate, Ben was an inspiration to us all. #neuroscience #glia #advocateforwomeninStem #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Very important paper, as the heterogeneity of the BBB is one of the main reasons some cells can penetrate the BBB better than others.

@_rdkim smashed her thesis defense today
Thanks to @westboundsigned for being a most excellent external reader
And after years of dropping (weekly) hints, she got her sword - a 4ft broadsword
Congratulations Dr Kim!
The every growing lab was both proud & celebrating at scale!

Important insights from the amazing Ben Barres.
For trainees, definitely read the papers published in @Nature and @NeuroCellPress. Not to be missed.
