Once dismissed, these cells in the brain have the spotlight in the neuroscience world. My interview with NPR's Jon Hamilton about glial cells and inflammation in X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism.

How the ‘Stars of the Brain’ Could Protect Us From Neurodegeneration. New York Stem Cell Foundation highlights our work on interferon-responsive reactive astrocytes published in Glia.

Lipid-Laden, Sluggish Microglia? Blame Aβ. Alzforum highlights our preprint on microglial lipid droplets in Alzheimer's disease, which was a part of my PhD work in the Chopra lab.

Leon Levy Fellowship in Neuroscience.  I was awarded a postdoctoral research fellowship by the Leon Levy Foundation to study how glial cells in the brain contribute to neurodegeneration.

ChemBioChem Front Cover Feature. Our paper on pH-activable fluorescent probes for microglial organelles featured on the front cover of ChemBioChem.

Toxic Fatty Acids to Blame for Brain Cell Death After Initial Injury. NYU Langone Health coverage of the astrocyte toxic lipid paper (collaboration with Liddelow lab).

ELOVL Hurts—Enzyme Makes Lipids That Turn Astrocytes Toxic. AlzForum highlights the astrocyte toxic lipid paper, to which I was a contributing author during graduate school.
