Common household chemicals pose a risk to the brain’s myelinating cells
Thrilled to share groundbreaking findings from our latest study led by @ErinFCohn at @CWRUSOM's Institute for Glial Sciences, in collaboration with the U.S. @EPA.

Excited to be in Boston for #ISSCR2023. Tesar Lab members Erin Cohn (@ErinFCohn) and Kevin Allan (@kevbot1992) are presenting posters that showcase the use of stem cell tools to understand glial cells in the brain🧠. Please stop by Thursday👋!
Thanks to Cleveland Mayor @JustinMBibb for kicking off Cleveland’s Rare Disease Day @cwru. We are entering a new era of treatments for rare diseases and the Tesar Lab is proud that our science is playing a small part to help patients and their families.
I completed my Virtual 5K 🏃🏽♂️ today (22min 16sec) in sunny 😎Cleveland, Ohio to support the kids and families affected by Pelizaeus Merzbacher Disease. There is still time to join me and/or donate. @_pmdfoundation@CWRUSOM#curePMD

Very special to have my friend, fellow @nyscf Investigator alumnus, and immunology superstar extraordinaire @deeptabhattacha in Cleveland tonight for the @Indians game with our better halves.
Congrats to Dr. Kevin Allan @kevbot1992 on successfully defending his PhD thesis today and joining the ranks of @TesarLab alumni! Kevin is an amazing human and we will miss him when he returns to medical school this summer. #PoppinBubbles@cwrumstp@CWRUSOM
Looking forward to chairing tonight's session "Target and Mechanism of Action Deconvolution for Drug Discovery" at SLAS2021. Virtual name badge humor is 💯

Good luck to my alama mater in the Ohio high school football state championship game today. Hard to believe it has been 22 years since I last took the field

New paper from our team out today in @CellStemCell. In this work we show the mechanism by which low oxygen damages myelinating cells in the brain and reframe therapeutic strategies for combatting hypoxia-mediated disease.
