ποΈNew episode alert!
Prof. Massimo Hilliard and Dr. RamΓ³n MartΓnez-MΓ‘rmol discuss neuronal fusionπ§ , how viral infectionsπ¦ can disrupt neural circuits through fusion, and how C. elegansπͺ±, a tiny roundworm, might one day revolutionise nerve injury repair!

Out now! We found a new molecule, OSP-1, that protects neurons from damage caused by oxidative stress. We show that OSP-1 reduces cell death by regulating autophagy, and can be an exciting target for future treatments of acute insults such as stroke.
