An awesome list if new investigators!.. congrats HHMI

Meet Zuri Sullivan on #HumansofHBI Catherine Dulac brain.harvard.edu/hbi_humans/zur… "When animals get an infection, they undergo a number of behavioral and physiologic changes – they lose their appetite, develop a fever, feel lethargic, and have diminished interest in social interaction...

Discovery of a set of "I feel good with mommy" neurons in the zona incerta of mouse pups. A superb finding by Marcelo Dietrich 马塞洛 that opens a new fields of inquiry on infant social behavior circuits! Bravo!... Science …science-org.ezp-prod1.hul.harvard.edu/doi/10.1126/sc…

Postdocs: “Please raise the NIH minimum salary and pay us a respectable wage for a scientist with a doctorate.” NIH: “We are limiting the amount of time postdocs can be supported by NIH funds and shortening the eligibility window for key mentored career development awards.”

So happy to share our new work that is now out @sciencemagazine: We show how neurons in the mouse zona incerta (ZI) modulate infant social behaviors and learning. This work was led by the AMAZING graduate student Yuexuan Li Yuexuan Li 李玥璇. 🎉science.org/doi/epdf/10.11… #ScienceResearch

Marcelo Dietrich 马塞洛 & his team found the neurons encoding mother–baby bond in mice. Activating them when mum is away reduced baby mice' crying calls & stress hormones. “I see these neurons as the ‘I feel good with mommy’ neurons,” says Catherine Dulac Read more nature nature.com/articles/d4158…

My paper with Cengiz Pehlevan is out now in PNAS! doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2… Sequences are a core part of an animal's behavioral repertoire, and Hebbian learning allows neural circuits to store memories of sequences for later recall.

Alan Garber, Harvard’s interim president since January, has agreed to serve as president through the 2026-27 academic year. A full-scale search for his successor is expected to begin in the late spring or summer of 2026. hrvd.me/Garber24t

Welcome to our new MCB_Harvard colleague Kazuki Nagashima Kazuki (Kaz) Nagashima !

Check out the latest project that came out of the phenomenally productive collaboration that Roy Harpaz (Roy Harpaz) has initiated a few years ago by bridging the joint expertises of @engertlab and the team of Mark Fishman (also here at Harvard).

Nice piece on my wonderful colleague Cassandra Extavour! MCB_Harvard Harvard Organismic & Evolutionary Biology

Wonderful to have my dear colleague Naoshige Uchida stepping in as the new Director of Harvard University Neuro Concentration MCB_Harvard

Our neuroscience undergraduates will be in good hands with Nao Naoshige Uchida at the helm!

Super excited to share my postdoc work investigating how mating and parental behaviors evolve using wild species of mice combined with single nucleus RNA-sequencing of the hypothalamus 🐭🧠🧬! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Super interesting comparison of hypothalamic cell types between 2 species of Peromyscus mice with different social structures. Bravo Dr. Jenny Chen, Hopi Hoestra and Sean Eddy (no longer on this platform it seems..)
