Thanks again @thelisterinstitute.bsky.social - if you happen to be free today 1-2pm do join my talk to learn more about our work on #synuclein #Parkinsons and #Biomolecularcondensates Details and link below

The Lister Institute of Preventive Medicine@thelisterinstitute.bsky.social · last mo.

Next up in our #ListerPrize2026 showcase: @lautenschlagerlab.bsky.social at @ucllifesciences.bsky.social. Her group studies how phase separation of alpha-synuclein and associated proteins influences precise 3D layouts and dynamics at nerve terminals. Janin's lab 👉 www.lautenschlager-lab.com

Join us for our final summer talk THIS Friday (3rd July 2026, 1 pm BST) with Rebecca Beveridge and Janin Lautenschläger. Short break in August and then more exciting talks in September!! @physicsoflifeuk.bsky.social

Come join us for the next monthly on-line seminar (3rd July 2026, 1 pm BST) aimed to connect the UK Biomolecular Condensate community (all are welcome to come and listen). Rebecca Beveridge and Janin Lautenschläger are presenting! @physicsoflifeuk.bsky.social

This is going to be so much fun!! If you are an ECR come join us #condensates

As always, the Big Biology Day at Hills Rd Sixth Form was an absolute blast! A great morning with @alzheimersresearchuk.org and a great afternoon with @thecimr.bsky.social

Only two more days to go!! This Saturday from 10am to 4pm at Hills Road Sixth Form @thecimr.bsky.social will be joining Big Biology Day. Come along and bring your #family to join in lots of #fun #science activities.

We're looking forward to the Big Biology Day at Hills Road Sixth Form on Saturday 11th October - who's coming?

Very excited to share our second preprint from the lab ‘Dual effect of alpha-synuclein disease variants on condensate formation’ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Great work from Aswathy, Aishwarya, Tianhao and our collaborator Tiago Outeiro. Thanks to @thecimr.bsky.social and @royalsociety.org.

Dual effect of alpha-synuclein disease variants on condensate formation

Alpha-synuclein is a pre-synaptic protein implicated in synucleinopathies like Parkinson's disease and Dementia with Lewy Bodies, where it accumulates in intracellular aggregates termed Lewy bodies an...

With #WorldParkinsonsDay we have the last sessions of the #synuclein meeting in #Cambridge. Seeing such a breath of research from basic to clinical, from neurons to glia is so important to drive the field!! @parkinsons.org.uk #Synuclein2025 #syn2025 #cambridge2025

Very excited to be presenting our work on alpha #synuclein phase separation at #CamNeuro2025 today. #Neuroscience #Cambridge #Neurodegeneration @camneuro.bsky.social Research @thecimr.bsky.social @cambridgeuni.bsky.social @royalsociety.org Interesting view on todays lecture Theater..

Very happy to have shared my #career experience with early career #researchers during the #ARUK ECR Networking Seminar yesterday. It was a pleasure to see you all!! @alzheimersresearchuk.org #Science @thecimr.bsky.social @cambridgeuni.bsky.social @royalsociety.org #Alzheimers #Parkinsons

Looking forward to Synuclein #Meeting in sunny #Cambridge. All posters from the lab are in the line up. And I will be presenting our work on VAMP2-mediated #synuclein phase separation on 9th - early morning 😊 See you all soon!! #Science @thecimr.bsky.social @cambridgeuni.bsky.social #Parkinson

What a fantastic day at #CambridgeFestival!! @thecimr.bsky.social contributed again to this years Cambridge Festival at the Biomedical Campus. Thanks to all amazing colleagues from @thecimr.bsky.social, @cambridgeuni.bsky.social making this event run!! More here: www.lautenschlager-lab.com/blog

Already plans for the weekend? Join us for Cambridge Festival at the Cambridge Academy for Science and Technology. Bring the kids and enjoy a day of fun activities to learn about #cells, #molecules and more!! Find us @thecimr.bsky.social - Saturday 22nd 11-4pm #Science #STEM #Cambridge #Event

Join us in a months time in Cambridge for the Synuclein 2025 meeting!! Lots of exciting talks and opportunities for discussion and exchange. Looking forward to seeing you.
