Together with Annette Schenck we organise the Sixth Dutch Neurodevelopmental Disorders Day on March 13, 2024 in Nijmegen, NL
Our Keynote speaker is Gaia Novarino (IST Vienna).
Registration is FREE  via neurodevdisorders.org

Come and join us!

Wonderful seminar and visit by ⁦Nael⁩ (with some 💪 as external PhD examiner) ⁦The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids)⁩. Nael’s team’s work on modeling NDDs is exciting and inspiring. Thanks to James Ellis for organizing. And bonus time with ⁦Karun K Singh⁩

Registration for the Sixth Dutch Neurodevelopmental Disorders Day on March 13, 2024 is now open. Our Keynote speaker this year will be Gaia Novarino (IST Vienna). Attendance for the meeting is FREE and open to all but prior registration is required via: neurodevdisorders.org

IKCC is really proud to have worked with this outstanding group of young scientists trying to learn what happens to a cell when it loses its antenna, the primary cilium. In the case of the kidney, losing its cilium is the first step to becoming a #KidneyCancer cell. (1/2)

Sialic acid plays a crucial role in brain development, #learning & #memory .

Study shows sialic acid is necessary for network formation during human neuronal development and provides a physiologically relevant model in human iPSC-derived neurons onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jn…

👏Big congrats to kickass neuroscientist Dr. Aleksandra Badura💫who led our interdisciplinary SCANNER team to this €5.3M grant to study sex differences in #autism !
See her 🧵about #perseverance , the most important trait in academia.

Very excited and honored to be part of this new #NWA funded consortium #SCANNER led by amazing Dr. Aleksandra Badura , in which we will investigate sex-specific differences in #autism . We will contribute with studies using IPSCs and mouse models.

Attending my first #Euroglia meeting, in Berlin
We are adventuring in the field of astrocytes and microglia using patient-derived model systems. We present posters on protocols for generating tricultures of neurons astrocytes and microglia, T11-056B and T11-049B

Really proud to share our new work on developing an in silico model for human neuronal networks. We hope this will be helpful for the disease modeling community, especially for the #MEA aficionado.
