It was a true pleasure to attend and give a talk at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories Brain Barriers conference in NY. By now, the brain barriers community feels like my extended science family, each meeting is like a family reunion.

🚨 A new Daneman Lab preprint!! 🚨 Reid Larsen, one of the brightest scientists I know, studied the BBB glycocalyx, identified its structure, composition, and function and uncovered what makes the CNS glycocalyx unique. It was a true pleasure to be a part of this seminal study! shorturl.at/Wkhxr

Multi-omic analysis reveals the unique glycan landscape of the blood-brain barrier glycocalyx

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) glycocalyx is the dense layer of glycans and glycoconjugates that coats the luminal surface of the central nervous system (CNS) vasculature. Despite being the first point...

Hi Bluesky! I'm Sidar Aydın, a postdoc in Richard Daneman’s lab at UCSD. I earned my PhD at the University of Bern in Britta Engelhardt’s lab, studying CD8 T cells/BBB. I continue to study brain barriers in disease, with a new focus on exploring the barriers at circumventricular organs!
