Adult neurogenesis: New neurons, new opportunities
#MSCA success rates now below 10%, yet the work that goes into writing this application is immense. Beyond the obvious increase in funding we need to find ways to lighten the time investment as well. Thousands of researchers spend weeks if not months working on this.
Looking forward to trying this out!!
Together with @ronghuizhu.bsky.social, we are thrilled to present our new perturb-seq study of 22M primary CD4+ T cells, across donors and timepoints – the result of a decade-long collaboration between the Marson @marsonlab.bsky.social and Pritchard @jkpritch.bsky.social labs 🧵 tinyurl.com/gwt2025
Excited to share that my main PhD work with @labsalta.bsky.social is now out in @cp-cellstemcell.bsky.social ✨ — with lots of new additions!
Feeling very grateful for all the teamwork and everyone who contributed along the way 💜

For obvious reasons, I've become fascinated with retrotransposons. So we ( @alexwhiteley.bsky.social and I) wrote an article now out in Neuron @cellpress.bsky.social on how we think retrotransposons influence brain function and health! kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F...
Kempermann and colleagues discuss new directions in neuroscience stemming from an understanding that adult neurogenesis contributes to brain function in health and disease. They discuss the role and function of adult stem cells; the impact of environmental regulation; the interplay between development, plasticity, and aging; and other fundamental questions.
Gene regulatory networks encode the fundamental logic of cellular functions, but systematic network mapping remains challenging, especially in cell states relevant to human biology and disease. Here, ...
Huntington’s disease (HD) is usually described as rare, tragic, and intractable. Yet, HD offers a strategically unique entry point for neuroscience. W…
