Our ferroptosis study is now published in @NatureNeuro. Data was added during revisions including an exciting finding that iron-overloaded microglia are neurotoxic, highlighting a role for these cells in Parkinson’s and other neurodegenerative diseases. nature.com/articles/s41593-0…

Hundreds of genes have been associated with autism & neurodev disorders But how do these genes impact specific stages in human development? In a new preprint, @XianglingM took a bold approach & developed CRISPR screens in #assembloids to map 425 genes on interneuron dev stages 👇
