We’re excited to welcome back Sebastian Kinzie to the lab this summer! Sebastian is a returning summer student continuing his work on the photo-biotinylation project, building on the research he began with us last summer. We're thrilled to have him back on the team!

We’re thrilled to share that Rudy Gelb-Bicknell, former research technician in the lab, has officially started his PhD at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit / Sainsbury Wellcome Centre at UCL! 🎉
We’re so excited to see him take this next step and can’t wait to follow all the amazing things he’ll do in London.
Congrats Rudy — and best of luck in your PhD journey!

We’re excited to share that our lab has received new funding from the Coins for Alzheimer’s Research Trust (https://www.cartfund.org/) to support our ongoing work on neurodegenerative disease mechanisms. We're grateful for the support and eager to continue advancing the science forward!

Dina had the opportunity to give an invited talk at the New England Society for Microscopy (NESM), a regional affiliate of the Microscopy Society of America dedicated to advancing microscopy education and research across biological and physical sciences. NESM organizes technical meetings throughout the year, featuring workshops, facility tours, and keynote presentations. Her talk focused on how multiphoton microscopy can be used to monitor the accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles of tau protein in Alzheimer’s disease mouse models, highlighting how advanced imaging tools can provide real-time insights into the spatial and temporal progression of tau pathology in the brain.
