As promised, and committing to the core open science values of our lab, here's the updated preprint. More data, more supplementary figures, stronger conclusions.

🔜The 1st Congenital Insensitivity to Pain conference is now 1 week away! Please join us (in-person/online) if you're interested in how painlessness is inherited, different phenotypic presentations and molecular mechanisms - the developmental PRDM12-TrkA-NGF axis and Nav channels among them.
📣The 1st International Conference on Congenital Insensitivity to Pain is on Friday 10th October in Cambridge, UK. A great line-up of clinicians & researchers, so if you're interested in understanding pain and nociception from this unique perspective, signup here: www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/first-inte...

Haoming won best poster at last year’s retreat, and now Ana takes home best talk! The team is on a roll!
On the way back to London after 2 amazing days sharing science in the CDN department retreat - and look what I got!

Open Science = Better Science (for the community and for YOU!)
✅ Data sharing improves accessibility, reproducibility & collaboration
❌ But it’s often effortful & time-consuming

Hey #NeuroSky, has anyone used a MAP2 antibody that successfully labels the soma on mouse brain slices? We've tried one but it stains only the dendrites. Any advice will be useful! 🧠🧪
