So excited for #SfN2022... Can't wait to see old friends after years! And make new ones: Come say hi 😍

Interested in PhD or postbac programs in neuroscience UAB? Stop by the #SfN22 graduate fair (booth 64) this afternoon from 1-2pm to chat with me to learn more!

Really excited to present some recent work from Jen Tuscher and @R_Phillips_3 in Phoenix next week #ACNP2022 in this session on application of single cell sequencing technologies to understand brain function!

Happening today at 3pm! #ACNP2022

Thrilled to share this everybody! Local + inter-regional regulation of memory ensembles.

I am sadly unable to attend Winter Conference on Brain Research this year, but the lab is representing with posters from Jen Tuscher, Emily Jorgensen, PhD, and Nathaniel Robinson, PhD (he/him). Be sure to check these out after hitting the slopes on Sunday and Tuesday! #WCBR2023

My lab at Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine is looking for 1-2 research techs. Great opportunity for students who want experiences in system neuroscience and mentorship as transiting to grad/med school. Please RT! careers.northwestern.edu/psc/hr857prd_e…

Really looking forward to this next week! Thank you NYU postdocs for the invite and Ismail Ahmed for hosting

I will be talking about atypical astrocytes this Tursday! Join me to have a fun discussion about what happens to astrocytes when the BBB is disrupted. Reminder: the US changed to summer time, but Europe hasn't yet. That means that it will be at 11 am EST, 10 CST and 8 PST.

New lab preprint with work from Svitlana Bach is now out! Here we explored distinct functions of transcript variants that arise from the Bdnf gene, which codes for brain-derived neurotrophic factor. A short thread... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The UAB Heersink SOM has just relaunched its highly successful strategic neurosciences recruiting initiative! We are looking to recruit up to 20 faculty (at any rank) across UAB neuroscience departments. See posting linked here for details! uab.peopleadmin.com/postings/18636

Hard to believe that @R_Phillips_3's time as a PhD student in the lab is already coming to an end! Robert has had a fantastic run in the lab and was a key driver on almost all of our recent papers. We even used some of his ATAC-seq data for the dissertation announcement below!

Check out this new work from @R_Phillips_3 - one of my favorite stories from the lab! Here, Robert mechanistically links early experience-dependent transcriptional changes to later upregulation of an opioid neuropeptide important for mood, motivated behavior, and addiction.

Excited to announce that Jen Tuscher will be joining us as an Assistant Prof this Fall after completing her post-doc with Jeremy Day. Her research uses multiomic profiling to examine cell-type specific programs related to SUDs and memory persistence. Welcome Jen! Medical College of Wisconsin

MCW Pharmacology & Toxicology is continuing to grow & will be opening another #neuroscience recruitment soon. An area of priority will be related to child/adolescent health (preclinical research with interest in translation). If you are on the market and doing work in this area, please reach out

MUSC Dept of Neuroscience MUSC Department of Neuroscience is hiring! Open-rank TT faculty position focused on the neurobiology of substance use disorders. Highly collaborative & awesome training environment in a beautiful city. Cannot endorse strongly enough. Please RT! musc.career-pages.com/jobs/univ-open…

Very excited to share this new preprint led by the super talented Kasey Brida. We started by asking what marks drug-activated ensembles and stumbled onto a surprising answer that identified a key regulator of neuronal excitability and reward. A brief 🧵... biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Interested in single cell genomics but need help getting started? Check out my lab's Single Cell Genomics Day on April 25. Talks will feature recent exciting computational and experimental advances and will be live-streamed at satijalab.org/scgd. Please RT/spread the word!

Excited to see this NIDAnews supported work led by Kasey Brida officially published! Kasey identified a marker of neurons that are responsive to the psychostimulant drug cocaine, and discovered that this marker is essential for cocaine reward. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Interested in single cell genomics but need help getting started? Check out the full agenda for our Single Cell Genomics Day on Friday 4/25. All talks will be live-streamed (no registration required) at satijalab.org/scgd25
