Neurobiologist @UCLIoN. Interested in neurons, intracellular trafficking and local translation.
Very excited to share our latest preprint! We looked at loss and gain of function, innervation, reinnervation, and in vivo axonal transport in a FUS-ALS mouse model!

Expansion microscopy reveals nano-scale insights into the human neuromuscular junction
Ramadan et al. employ expansion microscopy to visualize neuromuscular junctions in
human and mouse muscles. Their findings demonstrate expansion microscopy as an accessible
and cost-effective approach...
