This started as a small project in the lab to get our staining to be cleaner and evolved thanks to a lot of hard work by our very talented fellow Diana King who is now at UPenn doing her PhD. We’ve been sharing the device and all I can say is it works REALLY WELL.

Efficient removal of naturally-occurring lipofuscin autofluorescence in human nervous tissue using high-intensity white light.
Background autofluorescence is enhanced in human tissue relative to small animals and presents a barrier to fully realizing the potential of novel multiplex methods in human studies. In particular, li...

BOOM! Super cool stuff
🔬 Exciting discovery! We've been curious about the function of unique IBA1+ cell staining we observed around healthy human DRG neurons in the lab (indicated by red arrows). A new paper @cellpress.bsky.social finally provides some answers. Link: www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

The first time I visited the US was actually a conference in New Orleans. I immediately fell in love with Cajun cuisine, and preparing Gumbo has been a source of comfort and joy since many years now. Luckily, my family loves it as much as me. Picture of Saturday's dish for your attention.

Really nice article in NY Times Magazine on the staggering impact of chronic pain, the challenges of treating it, and the journey toward discovering better, non-opioid pain therapies. 🧠💊

Chronic Pain Afflicts Billions of People. It’s Time for a Revolution.
As many as two billion people suffer from it — including me. Can science finally bring us relief?

A pretty good year for drug approvals in 2024 www.nature.com/articles/d41... but neurology lags behind recent trends for the year. Top of the list on what to look forward to in 2025 is Suzetrigine (VX-548) for acute (post surgical) pain in Jan!
2024 FDA approvals
The FDA approved 50 new therapeutics in 2024, with green lights for a novel schizophrenia drug, a first NASH medicine and much more.

Happy Thanksgiving! Homemade food with friends. American staples, German Rotkraut, Chilean wine. It can hardly get better.

Happy about all connections on this new platform, and using the opportunity to announce our paper from last month. We found molecular evidence for a substantial, clinically relevant differentiation of human C-nociceptors.
