🧠🌟 How do cells communicate across long distances in the developing brain? A new study in Cell reveals the role of cytonemes, thin and long projections that act as express routes for signaling molecules. The study shows how cytonemes shape neural patterning and function. #cytonemes #neurodevelopment #signaling https://neurosciencenews.com/cytonemes-neurodevelopment-25407/

Postdoctoral Research Associate - Cell & Molecular Biology in Memphis, Tennessee | St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
Hello! I am a #scientist at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital who studies mechanisms of intercellular communication. My lab is particularly interested in how Sonic #hedgehog signals are sent, received, and interpreted during #development. We are working to improve imaging techniques to visualize SHH signal transport through #cytonemes. We also have projects focused on #Cilia and GLI #transcription factors. Posting about the #lab , #mentoring , and the occasional hedgehog joke πŸ¦”
What a wonderful surprise @ #wnt2022. @Zenglab did not talk about #cytonemes, however, she demonstrated @dmvirshup β€˜s and our unique ability to blend in and wander around at the Himeji Castle @HimejiCityBot incognito πŸ˜‰
