🧠 Vasospasm after cardiac arrest 🫀
In our new @JAHA_AHA paper ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA…, we show that cerebral #vasospasm drives early (3h) but not late (24h) cerebral hypoperfusion after #resuscitation.

Working hypothesis:
Cerebral vasospasm ➡️ post-resuscitation 🧠 injury

Today, I am starting two new positions as Associate Professor at Center of Functionally Integrative Neuroscience @AarhusUni, and an introductory position in #Neurology at @AUHdk. I’m really looking forward to these next steps in my career 🧠

The future of scientific publishing was the focus of a great session at the #NAD #neuroscience Workshop this week! We discussed #OpenAccess, @ResearchHub, peer review, #PeerReplication, research integrity, #reproducibility, and #AI in #publishing. Thanks to our fantastic panel!

🎉 Welcome to the lab, Martin Ehrenberger Novotny! 🎉
Martin has kicked off his research year that will explore whether ketone bodies can prevent 🧠 vasospasm following #resuscitation.
Proud to supervise together with @AsgerGranfeldt, Eugenio Gutierrez, and Kristoffer Berg-Hansen

Cool study. 7% of tracked leukocytes were involved in a stalling event 👀 that’s quite substantial, and more than I would have expected under physiological conditions.

Leukocyte stalling in 🐭Retinal microvasculature
2PM

Independent of capillary diameter

In a 20-s imaging series, "~7% of all tracked leukocytes stalled for at least one time along their path, with a maximum of nine stalls"

87% stalls occur at vessel junctions, where 71% occupied with #Pericyte

"even the briefest WBC stalls, when repeated and occurring at sufficient density, can collectively contribute to an escalating irregularity in RBC flow"
