The Sipione Lab is recruiting a postdoc to follow up on this work. If you're interested in microscopy, gangliosides and extracellular vesicles, join us at at the University of Alberta 🇨🇦! More information below👇 #hiring #postdoc
Late to post, but very excited to share our new article out now in @ScienceAdvances! Gangliosides modulate extracellular vesicle secretion, with implications for neurodegenerative disease and other conditions with altered ganglioside levels. science.org/doi/10.1126/scia… #glycotime

Immerse yourself in a collection of artwork that portrays the intersections between art and science. From Nov. 21-June 22, @NMHI_UofA and @UofA_Arts invite you to visit the CONNECTIONS exhibition at @RoyalAlberta, where artists, scientists, students and individuals with lived experience display their artwork and blend creativity with scientific insight. Come experience the healing power of art and the beautiful threads it holds between neuroscience research, clinical care and mental health to highlight our human connections. Special thanks to the Royal Alberta Museum for hosting the exhibit. Visit the CONNECTIONS website: connectionsnmhi.ualberta.ca/ #CONNECTIONSExhibit #RoyalAlbertaMuseum #UAlberta
