The @GregoryLab7 is excited to be representing @aberdeenuni in San Diego this week for the annual MNDA Symposium! ⭐️🤓⭐️

@jennagregory488 @AberdeenNeuro Two of Jenna's PhD students, Lucas and Jemima, also visited York. Over lunch with YBRI junior staff and students they shared their work on developing a diagnostic model that categorises images of neuronal cells

Delighted to have @jennagregory488 as today's Biomedical Science seminar speaker from @AberdeenNeuro

Jenna presented her work on improving translation in neurodegenerative diseases

Hosted by Prof Stephen Smith

🧠New preprint: Neurodegeneration-associated proteinopathies aren't confined to the brain, they can be detected in routine GI biopsies, years before symptom onset. @TatianaLanger @GregoryLab7 @FergalWaldron @Watsoninverness

Delighted to share the final published version of this collaborative work led by @dezeraecox at the University of Wollongong, with contributions from my team (@GregoryLab7 & @FergalWaldron) @aberdeenuni Published in Advanced Science this week: doi.org/10.1002/advs.2…

🫆Key findings:
⭐️Detailed aggregate fingerprints (morphological and compositional profiles)
⭐️FUS co-aggregates with TDP-43, changing the shape of the aggregate.
⭐️TDP-43 aggregates in controls and SOD-1 cases-aggregates are morphologically and compositionally distinct from sALS

🤓Impact:
This is the first demonstration that single-molecule aggregate profiling can stratify MND cases from patient-derived tissue — paving the way for sensitive, minimally invasive diagnostics and mechanistically informed disease monitoring.

What an amazing few days we have had presenting our work and catching up with colleagues and friends at the Arturo Falaschi Conference “2nd biennial conference on TDP-43 function and dysfunction in disease” in Trieste.

⭐️Access to state of the art equipment
⭐️Spacious lab and office space with ample room to grow your team

At our Annual Meeting, Dr. Jenna Gregory shared how her team is bringing oncology-style precision to ALS—studying how T cells behave differently with #ALS. Her findings, through research we fund, offer clues for better treatment. Sign up to learn more: bit.ly/3GGRGTT

FUS implicated in cognitive & behavioral dysfunction in ALS, nominating FUS mislocalization & its downstream gene network as therapeutic targets. Delighted to contribute with @jennagregory488 - work driven by @SalimMegat, Raphaelle Cassel & Luc Dupuis.

Delighted to be able to contribute to this important piece of work driven by Salim Megat, Raphaelle Cassel, and Luc Dupuis demonstrating the significance of FUS mislocalisation outside of FUS mutation carriers in ALS medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

@GregoryLab7 @FergalWaldron

Great to visit Edinburgh last week to share our work on #UCHL1 and catch up with colleagues working across both #FTD and #ALS

#ENCALS2025 in Turin is over, but we’ve had an amazing time presenting our team’s (@GregoryLab7) work as posters and oral presentations. A wonderful demonstration of the excellent translational neuroscience research going on @aberdeenuni. Can’t wait for Madrid next year! ⭐️🤩⭐️

Excellent talk by Lizzie @LizzieDellar on UCHL1 in asymptomatic C9orf72 HRE carriers at the FTD UK meeting in Edinburgh last week #ALS #FTD
