We're thrilled to introduce the #ANS2024 International Plenary Lecture speaker, Prof Tracy Bale @TheBaleLab of the @CUSystem!
Tracy will share some of her lab's exquisite data that demonstrate how extracellular vesicles serve as dynamic cellular communicators of stress + trauma🫧

Amazing image from @Jake_Cashion_ our Tasmanian Representative this year showing DCX positive cells in the hippocampus
We recently hosted a PowerPoint Karaoke event in Hobart @ResearchMenzies and had over 50 attendees. Our 9 keynote speakers did a great job at handling some difficult topics including mice driving cars and levitating frogs Thanks to @Jake_Cashion_ and @Tomlewis2310 for organising!

Last but not least, our NZ rep!
Kia ora kotou. Will is in his 2nd year into his PhD at @OtagoMedDept @NZBrain. His interests are emerging PET and MRI imaging techniques and increasing their utility to make them more accessible for clinical settings in neurodegenerative disorders
Prior to his PhD, Will's study interests included psychology and molecular biology. He feels that one of the best aspects of post-graduate study is the opportunity to make connections and learn from others.
