Our paper in Nature Comms is now online! Summary below but in short we use living human brain slice cultures in a number of different ways to model dementia processes. Big team effort led by myself, @robertmcgeachan.bsky.social and @clairedurrant1.bsky.social rdcu.be/ej647
Divergent actions of physiological and pathological amyloid-β on synapses in live human brain slice cultures
Nature Communications - Understanding synapse loss in Alzheimer’s disease has been hampered by a lack of human model systems. Here, the authors show that manipulation of physiological or...

Delighted to share our paper examining synaptic tau in PSP. Many thanks to @robertmcgeachan.bsky.social @clairedurrant1.bsky.social and our many collaborators and funders. And extra special thanks to tissue donors who make this work possible.
📢Fabulous new paper from @tspiresjones.bsky.social, @clairedurrant1.bsky.social & team describes new mechanisms in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, suggesting that targeting tau in synapses is a promising approach for future treatments.

Amazing to welcome HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh, Patron of Race Against Dementia to our lab! An incredible opportunity to showcase our work with living human brain slice cultures and the importance of investing in dementia research. We are very lucky to have her support.

In case anyone on BlueSky hasn't seen it, this may be the funniest scientific study ever published. Bringing it up now as the amazing @scotsfriction.bsky.social has just issued a "teaspoon amnesty" for our common room www.bmj.com/content/331/...

Got the BEST email over the weekend about provisional paper acceptance and still smiling and doing paper accepted dance. So a heads up that in the not too distant future this amazing data will have a "forever" peer-reviewed home: www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...
