Hi Bluesky!
I'm Sidar Aydın, a postdoc in Richard Daneman’s lab at UCSD. I earned my PhD at the University of Bern in Britta Engelhardt’s lab, studying CD8 T cells/BBB. I continue to study brain barriers in disease, with a new focus on exploring the barriers at circumventricular organs!

It was a true pleasure to attend and give a talk at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories Brain Barriers conference in NY. By now, the brain barriers community feels like my extended science family, each meeting is like a family reunion.

🚨 A new Daneman Lab preprint!! 🚨
Reid Larsen, one of the brightest scientists I know, studied the BBB glycocalyx, identified its structure, composition, and function and uncovered what makes the CNS glycocalyx unique. It was a true pleasure to be a part of this seminal study!
