Understanding the language of inflammatio n is a central question in the field of Neuroimmunology and may guide new therapeutic approaches for multiple sclerosis (MS) and other neurologic di seases. Interactions between CNS-resident cells are highly heterogeneous\; astrocytes and microglia nourish and protect neurons\, while inflammatory subsets drive demyelination and neurodegeneration in neurologic diseases. We recently developed two novel approaches to study astrocyte-microglia i nteractions at the single-cell level during inflammation: 1) an in vivo ba rcoding-based strategy that analyzes the transcriptomes and connections be tween individual cells\, and 2) a droplet-based platform for genome-wide\, unbiased CRISPR/Cas9 screening of genes that mediate cell crosstalk. In t his seminar\, I will discuss the development of these technologies and the ir application to study astrocyte-microglia signaling in experimental auto immune encephalomyelitis (EAE)\, a preclinical mouse model of MS.\n DTSTART:20240220T210000Z DTEND:20240220T220000Z LOCATION:de Grandpre Communications Centre\, Montreal Neurological Institut e\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 2B4\, 3801 rue University SUMMARY:Killam Seminar Series: Microfluidic tools for studying cell-cell in teractions URL:/neuro/fr/channels/event/killam-seminar-series-mic rofluidic-tools-studying-cell-cell-interactions-353656 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
