🧠✨ When the brain’s “clean-up” system (autophagy) fails, #neurons become overactive-linked to epilepsy. Blocking the BKCa potassium channel calms them down. New hope for #brain disease treatments! Collaboration across #Berlin institutes & NC researchers highlights the teamwork. tinyurl.com/47z72apy

On my way to Cambridge for #synuclein2025! New to both Cambridge and the synuclein/PD field. Looking forward to learn, meet new people and to discuss early asyn aggregation, synapses and organelles. I’ll have a poster too, so come say hi!

Our review "Neuronal autophagy in the control of synapse function" is already available online. Have a look! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
