I love that people have been looking for sex-based differences in the human brain since at least ancient Greece and all our brains still can't be scientifically distinguished (for all the stupid fucks out there who think females are less intelligent than males, or something, and you KNOW those people are out there).

🧠🔬 Our Giuseppe Testa Group (Neurogenomics), with international colleagues from the University of Milan, has studied a method for engineering the parasite Toxoplasma gondii as a vehicle for transporting therapeutic proteins to the central nervous system, offering a potential solution to the challenges of treating neurological diseases.

📰 The publication is published in Nature Microbiology.

How does APOE4 affect #humanbrain in #Alzheimer’s disease?

The new paper on @Nature by our Jose Davila-Velderrain, Group Leader at the #Neurogenomics Research Centre, and colleagues at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the #BroadInstitute of #MIT and #Harvard, led by Li-Huei Tsai, paves the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for AD.

How do people evaluate #media representations of scientific uncertainty? 👩‍🔬

New #study compares audience reactions to a #news article portraying a #neurogenomics discovery as certain or uncertain: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09636625221122960

One #result: Uncertainty disclosure had no main effect on perceived news article #credibility or scientist #trustworthiness – but people preferring information about uncertainty found #scientists more #trustworthy when uncertainty was disclosed 🔎
