Yale School of Medicine teams have received three grants totaling $18 million from Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s (ASAP), a coordinated research initiative devoted to accelerating the pace of discovery and informing the path to a cure for Parkinson’s disease (PD) research.
The Kavli Institute for Neuroscience is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2024 Kavli Postdoctoral Fellowship: Drs. Hongyan Hao, Kevin Chen, and Dhananjay Bhaskar.
This #TraineeTuesday, we are highlighting Chase Amos, a graduate student in the De Camilli Lab! He recently published a report in Contact on the connection between the two proteins VPS13A and XK in red blood cell precursors, and a paper in Molecular Biology of the Cell.
In two new papers, scientists provide insight into the function of a protein called VPS13C, one of the molecular suspects that underlie Parkinson’s, a disease marked by uncontrollable movements including tremors, stiffness, and loss of balance.
Yale researchers across disciplines are using single cell technologies to profile various kinds of cells that exist together in both healthy and diseased organs and create the most detailed blueprints of diseases to date, as well as to better understand how various cells develop over time and interact with one another.
This #TraineeTuesday stars Andrés Guillén, a PhD student in the De Camilli lab! His recent preprint could deepen understanding of the pathogenesis of McLeod Syndrome and other rare diseases under the neuroacanthocytosis umbrella.
