I am excited to share this pre-print! We modeled exposure to the heavy metal lead in human iPSC organoids and discovered that Pb shifts lineage trajectories—promoting neurogenesis at the expense of astrogenesis. See the 🧵below. Thank you to my incredible mentor and co-authors @sloanlab.bsky.social!
Excited to share an important new pre-print from the lab led by incredibly talented postdoc @maureenbiologies.bsky.social, a neurotoxicologist who came to the lab with an ambitious goal of understanding the consequences of toxicant exposure in human neurodevelopment. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
