🧠 May 18th is Friedreich's Ataxia (FA) Awareness Day — a rare, progressive, inherited neurological disorder. At the EDDU, we study cortical neurons to uncover the underlying mechanisms of this condition. 🧬 In this image, you’re looking at two-week-old neurons stained with Hoechst (blue), Synaptophysin (red), and TUJ1 (green), revealing the intricate cellular structures we're investigating.

🔬 In our third and final episode of the video series, Thomas Durcan takes you on an insightful tour of our lab. This is where the magic happens—we’re constantly improving our equipment and assays to deepen our understanding of neurological diseases. We’re also proud to share our space with C-BIG Repository - Open Biobank, that provides patient samples. These samples allow us to reprogram cells into iPSCs and study various neurological disorders. Thank you for watching and supporting our research journey! 🧬 🧠 #iPSC #Neuroscience #Labtour #Biobank #Neurologicaldisease

From induction to maturation, we love to see the photo progress when working with organoids — bright field to immunofluorescence, each stage a snapshot of cellular choreography in action. What’s your favorite stage to capture? 🔬🧫 #Organoids #Research #iPSC #immunofluorescence #microscopy

This #ParkinsonsAwarenessMonth 🧠, we're advancing research using 3D organoids and bioreactors to study the progression of Parkinson’s disease. These models allow us to closely replicate the human brain, offering insights into how dopaminergic neurons degenerate and how we might develop better treatments. Our team is committed to finding new ways to fight this debilitating disease, and ultimately, open the door for new treatments and therapies. 🔬💡
