This weekend, our teams @cmn-vib.bsky.social & our amazing lab are trading lab coats for running shoes! We're hitting the pavement to raise funds for Alzheimer's research — a cause close to our hearts and minds. Every step we take brings us closer to a cure. StopAlzheimer
Check out our microglia annotation tool: mancusolab.bioinf.be/microglia/in...
Huge thanks to all my amazing colleagues and @mancusorenzo.bsky.social for the inspiring teamwork! Alma Nazlie Mohebiany, @jypremer.bsky.social, @paulapolanco.bsky.social, @baukje-bij.bsky.social, @piewall.bsky.social, @nicola-fattorelli.bsky.social.

Thrilled to share our latest review in @natureneuro.bsky.social
We dive into the transcriptional diversity of microglia across development, disease, regions, and sexes—highlighting emerging tools + a new resource for cell state annotation.

Laura Fumagalli (@mancusorenzo.bsky.sociallab) was recently awarded a pilot grant from Stichting Alzheimer Onderzoek. 🙌
This grant will support her research on the role of microglia in ALS and FTD.
