Day 2 of #ISN_ASN2025 - great to be here with @mariaeichelvogel.bsky.social (LBA45) and Eleonora Scalia (LBA09) who are both presenting their posters right now. I’ll be at A09-14, come say hi and check out some in vivo zebrafish imaging of axons and myelin! 🔬🐟

Brilliant Kick off day #ISNASN2025
@neurochemistry.org with the best conference views ever 😎
Glad to be part of it #TogetherForScience

If you wanna know more about my work on axons & zebrafish in the @lyons-lab.bsky.social join me during the poster session tmr evening (LBA45) or just reach out 🐠

Activity-driven myelin sheath growth is mediated by mGluR5 - Nature Neuroscience
Employing pharmacology, genetics and all-optical approaches in zebrafish, Braaker et al. find that neuronal activity influences the growth of myelin sheaths along axons by signaling through metabotrop...

Developmental axon diameter growth of central nervous system axons does not depend on ensheathment or myelination by oligodendrocytes
Myelination facilitates the rapid conduction of action potentials along axons. In the central nervous system (CNS), myelinated axons vary over 100-fold in diameter, with conduction speed scaling linea...
