#Tau is a protein associated with many #brain diseases, including #Alzheimer's. @TauRx believe #education is essential in spreading awareness and understanding of how tau and Alzheimer's disease are connected. Learn more here #targetingtau ➡️ shorturl.at/xyK35

Delighted with this newly submitted paper!
Read our new work from @SerpellLab using PHF-core Tau fragment, showing that oxidative stress conditions that induce dityrosine crosslinking lead to the trapping of Tau intermediates, preventing them from transforming into fibrils.

I’m looking for a Phd student to join my lab at @SussexNeuro @SussexLifeSci in September 2021, to study the modulation of early visual processing by behaviour and neuromodulation. 👉bit.ly/3lcduHn But there is more...

👏Highlighted in our new issue: #AmyloidBeta 1-42 internalisation and toxicity are influenced by conformation and assembly state rather than size. Study by @KarenEMarshall @Serpell1 & colleagues →bit.ly/38vXYCO #neurodegeneration #Alzheimers @Serpelllab @SussexNeuro

Read @cathnaledi ‘s latest blog all about our #mrc funded research project investigating blood flow and #Alzheimers ! 🧠
Do bad blood vessels trigger #Dementia? @BrainEnergyLab is trying to understand how changes in blood vessels in the brain are linked to the onset of #Alzheimer’s disease. Find out more about their research in our latest blog: ow.ly/IhjS50Cgldc
We loved working with you!
This work, during my undergrad @SussexUni in the wonderful @SerpellLab, was what made me pursue a career in research! I contributed a very small amount to this paper but it was a very significant part of my baby science career 🤩 #neuroscience

Our latest paper investigating the structural polymorphism of #amyloid fibrils is now published with @SpringerNature in @CommsChem :) we use AFM to reconstruct and quantify amyloid polymorphism: rdcu.be/b64Ar @LDAubrey @LiisaLutter @CJSerpell @psinomore @SerpellLab
PostDoc position in Cryo-EM of Neurodegeneration in our group at the EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland. We offer excellent working conditions with outstanding equipment in a beautiful city at the Lake of Geneva. More info at epfl.ch/labs/lbem/open-posit…

Can we distinguish seeding through templated elongation, where the specific conformation encoded by amyloid fibrils is propagated, from a more generic surface-catalysed seeding mechanism? Yes we can, our new manuscript shows how we did it 😊🔬💡: biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… 2/2

We have two open possitions in the lab. A permanent Senior Lab Research Scientist (a mix of a permanent postdoc and lab manager) and a Postdoc. We investigate how neural circuits function and evolve using a multidisciplinary approach. For more info: prietogodinolab.org/team/joi…
