Repetitive head impacts induce neuronal loss and neuroinflammation in young athletes biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_neursci
Proud to have represented @bu_cte with @SamCalderazzo at last year’s NSAS course, one of the richest science experiences I’ve had the chance to attend. Big thanks to @soyonhonglab for organizing and all the fantastic speakers!

Read this moving NY Times piece highlighting our recent study on young individuals with CTE and their families’ stories. @bu_cte @ConcussionLF nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Back from SfN inspired by all the amazing new advances in glial biology and neurodegeneration! 🧠🧠 Thanks to all who stopped by my poster and to @_BrightFocus for their generous travel support.
A new study from @bu_cte reveals alarming chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) rates in young, amateur athletes. After examining the brains of 152 contact sport participants who had died under age 30, they discovered 41.4% had signs of CTE. Details ⬇️ spr.ly/6013PS76S
Michael Locksley had his son’s brain sent to be studied by researchers at Boston University, who diagnosed the CTE. His brain is one of 152 they have studied of contact-sport athletes under the age of 30. Of those, 63 had CTE. bit.ly/44pQBWF

It's time to stop making t-SNE & UMAP plots. In a new preprint w/ Tara Chari we show that while they display some correlation with the underlying high-dimension data, they don't preserve local or global structure & are misleading. They're also arbitrary.🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
