Research group at the University of Aberdeen investigating the extra-neuronal phenotypes of motor neuron diseases SMA and ALS.
PI: Prof Simon Parson Aberdeen, Scotland, UKJoined September 2023
Supporting the women in science in the @ParsonLab@hazelAllardyce_ and Alaa Alshwayatt , both pushing the boundaries in @sma research @smaEurope @sma_UK_
Now over to a recent past president of the Anat Soc, Simon Parson, @ParsonLab, University of Aberdeen, talking about Survival Motor Neuron protein #AnatSocEdinburgh2024
We are pleased to welcome five new members to our Scientific Advisory Panel, including an early career researcher and two lay members. 🧑🔬🔬
They'll play a crucial role in peer-reviewing research funding proposals and help to shape our research strategy.

Parson lab at the EMC academic afternoon yesterday. Just missing @NEAnatomist!
Thanks to @EuansCentre for organising a great session of talks.

It’s official…I graduated! 🎓🎉🍾
Thank you so much to everyone who supported me through my PhD. It’s been an incredible experience!
@NEAnatomist@ParsonLab@anat_soc#PhDone ✅
So pleased to see @hazelAllardyce_ graduate her PhD, and so disappointed that I couldn't be there to join in the celebration. Equally pleased tat shen decided to stay on the a poist-doc. Look out for her next paper .... @ParsonLab
Super proud of @ParsonLab PhD student Abedallah Hamida for his fabulous presentation on neuronal vulnerability to TDP-43 at the UoAberdeen PGR conference!
#ALS#TDP43
I'm late but this review by @ClaireDessalles in @J_Cell_Sci on the mechanobiology of pericytes is excellently written...
I knew almost nothing about it this morning. I probably still know very little but after reading it I feel like I'm an expert🤓

What is the role of non-motor neuron pathology in disease initiation and progression? Are we collecting sufficient data from treated patients? What aspects of pathology are not treated by current therapies? @SMAEurope @SMA_UK_
