A bit late to the party, but @TijsWatzeels and @CelesteLaureys1 presented their wonderful research on a very successful first UAntwerp Nanopore Day some weeks ago! See you next time!

The last few days, one of our Ph.D. students @CelesteLaureys1 presented a poster on her research at @ECDOorg Conference focusing on “Cell Death at the Crossroads of Neurodegeneration and Cancer". Stay tuned for the follow-up paper soon to be published! 🥳🧐#ECDO2024

Attended the book presentation of @BCeuleers’ book ‘Doodgewoon’ and the following ‘euthanasia at dementia’ debate. Extremely touching words on the brave choice her dad was forced to make when faced with Alzheimer’s, followed by a rather sobering political debate…

📌Preprint alert! Can naked extracellular RNA enter cells? Can it escape from endosomes into the cytosol? Can naked extracellular mRNAs be translated if not encapsulated in EVs or LNPs? Why do we have so many RNases in the blood? 🤔 A thread 🧵🪡 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Exciting news! Yesterday, we were honored to receive a generous grant from Stichting Alzheimer Onderzoek! This grant is a crucial step forward for our Alzheimer's research as we'll be delving into the intricacies of the ABCA7 gene, a risk factor in AD 🧠🧬
