Excited to share my postdoctoral research on how neuronal #aging contributes to RNA dysfunction is now online at Nature Neuroscience! Here we find that aged neurons suffer from chronic cellular stress that compromises resiliency to new stressors🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Neuronal aging causes mislocalization of splicing proteins and unchecked cellular stress - Nature Neuroscience
Rhine et al. find that neuronal aging leads to widespread dysregulation of RNA biology, including mislocalization of splicing proteins like TDP-43, chronic cellular stress and reduced resiliency.

I asked ChatGPT what is beautiful to a blind person. The response was inspiring.
1. Voice and tone: The warmth, timbre, and expressiveness of someone’s voice can be very impactful. A gentle or confident tone, clear speech, and an inviting laugh can be seen as “beautiful.”

This is the article co-written by Rumeysa Ozturk, the Turkish PhD student held in an immigration detention center for posing a threat to national foreign policy. Do you think an individual should be kept in a cell for voicing these ideas?

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!
This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.
It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.
