From research to real-world benefits – a new feature of our articles to highlight real-world benefits of research Here, @sarannafanning.bsky.social and Dennis Selkoe explain the implications of understanding lipid homeostasis in Parkinson disease. Full article here: nature.com/articles/s41...

Are you interested in contributing to exciting research on neurodegenerative diseases&the metabolome?The Fanning lab is interested in hearing from scientists interested in Postdoc, Research Scientist &Technician positions on our team. fanninglab.bwh.harvard.edu #parkinsonsdisease #lipids #lipidomics

ICYMI: New online! Parkinson disease is a fatty acidopathy

Parkinson disease is a fatty acidopathy

Nature Reviews Neurology, Published online: 01 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41582-025-01142-2This Perspective centres on alterations in the fatty acid-ome as the critical feature of lipid aberration in α-synucleinopathies, specifically Parkinson disease. Here, the authors explain the biological and genetic basis for their hypothesis, with an emphasis on the transient binding of α-synuclein to fatty acids of various lipids.

I am very grateful for the opportunity to write this Perspective with Dennis Selkoe refining the Parkinson’s Disease protein+lipidopathy to protein+fatty acid-opathy. www.nature.com/articles/s41... @springernature.com @natrevneurol.nature.com @brighamandwomens.bsky.social #parkinsons #lipids

Very grateful for a wonderful visit to FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg- a privilege to be a Visiting Professor on the Visiting Professor Program supported by the Bavarian State Ministry of Science &Arts program. Great to experience the exciting science with the GB. Com program &...

Thank you Claire Conway & Triona Ni Chongaile for the invitation to speak at The Royal College of Surgeons Ireland. It was a great day of science discussions. I look forward to our follow-up collaborations.

Thank you @anatneuroucc.bsky.social @ucc.ie for inviting me to to present as part of the Futures Aging and Brain Science Seminar series. Wonderful to share data and have productive collaborative conversations with a great Department.

It's great to welcome @sarannafanning.bsky.social back to @ucc.ie as part of our Futures ageing and brain science seminar. It's great to get such a comprehensive summary of her work in lipid pathways in Parkinsons

On World Parkinson’s Day the #synuclein2025 meeting takes place in Cambridge discussing advancements in understanding disease, progressing therapeutic candidates &diagnostics.Great to see the progress &hope among researchers, foundations, people with Parkinsons&industry partners.#WorldParkinsonsday

Thank you to @Milena Schuhmacher for the invitation to visit EPFL and present my labs work on lipid metabolism in neurodegenerative disease. It was great to develop new collaboration plans and hear about the exciting work at EPFL.

Grateful for the opportunity to co-chair and present at #ADPD2025.Thanks to my co-chair Ole Isacson &other session speakers Thomas Sudhof,Silke Nuber,Alexander Ehrenberg @garyholab.bsky.social @rikvanderkant.bsky.social Tim Bartels. Wonderful to see progress on lipid metabolism research in AD & PD.
