TMEM175, SCARB2 and CTSB associations with Parkinson's disease risk across populations.

This study identifies genetic associations between lysosomal genes and Parkinson's disease risk across diverse populations using GWAS and whole genome sequencing data.

Developmental overproduction of cortical superficial neurons impairs adult auditory cortical processing

This study shows that overproduction of cortical superficial neurons in mice impairs auditory processing and behavior in adulthood.

Global Parkinson's Genetics Program (GP2) Complex Network Protocol: Defining the causes of sporadic Parkinson's disease

The paper outlines the protocol for integrating genetic and clinical data from a global cohort of over 150,000 participants to study the genetic causes of sporadic Parkinson's disease.

GSAP regulates mitochondrial function through the Mitochondria-associated ER membrane in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease

This study identifies GSAP's role in Alzheimer's disease by showing it regulates mitochondrial function through the MAM and lipid homeostasis, with a SNP linked to increased AD risk.

High-resolution two-photon transcranial imaging of brain using direct wavefront sensing

This paper develops adaptive optics two-photon microscopy to achieve high-resolution transcranial imaging of brain neurons in living mice.

Adaptive optics two-photon endomicroscopy enables deep brain imaging at synaptic resolution over large volumes

This paper develops adaptive optics two-photon endomicroscopy to achieve high-resolution deep brain imaging and investigates neuronal plasticity in the hippocampus.
