Oh well, we forgot to take a picture altogether at the end of our talks #SfN2025…but we did make sure we had good food to celebrate our love for #radialglia and #astrocytes 😌

Back from #ISSCR2025, where I showed how cell morphology is a new layer of heterogeneity in glioblastoma and controls clinically relevant features with therapeutic promises.
Grateful for the support from @nereokalebic.bsky.social and @humantechnopole.bsky.social and for exciting new collaborations!
