New from Shea Lab: "A circuit from the locus coeruleus to the anterior cingulate cortex modulates offspring interactions in mice." Congrats to the whole team, but this paper is a monumental achievement for 1st author Alberto Corona. He is one to watch! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We are thrilled to share our latest manuscript @Ribeirolab on interactions between #foraging #decisions and #internalstates led by Dennis Goldschmidt and Ibrahim Tastekin. And yes! We also have a #neuron underlying these decisions! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #Drosophila #neuroscience

Absolutely recommend reading this study as soon as possible. Truly inspiring, fun and novel. Flies play!!! Huge congratulations to Wolf Huetteroth @[email protected] and everybody involved. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Thrilled to share that our study is now online Cell, outlining a neural circuit for male sexual behavior, drive, and reward. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🗓️Reminder: The first Future of Neuroethology webinar starts next week (Sep. 20th). We are looking forward to four fantastic speakers and a career panel 🧑‍💼 You can still register for this and future seminars: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… #neuroethology #ECR

Excited to announce our conference on neural circuits of social behavior across species. 🗓️6th - 8th of Dec 📍 Magdeburg We have a great line up of speakers. Check out the website & hurry up registering - limited seats available. Please RT Sanja Mikulovic sites.google.com/research.fcham…

❕ Don’t forget to sign up for our social brain meeting to be held in Magdeburg 6th - 8th of Dec. Looking forward to see many of you. ❕ 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

Interested in social behavior and underlying brain circuitry? Come join us in Magdeburg and get to know the magic Christmas season in parallel 🌟 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

has anyone successfully labelled periaqueductal gray inhibitory neurons using immunohistochemistry? any tip would be greatly appreciated!

New #preprint on Research Square: Social isolation and aggression training lead to escalated aggression and hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad axis hyperfunction in mice researchsquare.com/article/rs-366… #kisspeptin #gnrh #hypothalamus

Our PhD students Inês Correia Dias and Ana Rita Mendes presented their work yesterday at the Social Brain Magdeburg and we couldn't be prouder 🥰 thank you Constanze Lenschow Sanja Mikulovic and Kristine Krug for this opportunity and for organising this amazing conference!

We're hiring ambitious PhD students interested in the neural circuits underlying territorial behaviors. How do mice switch from aggression to escape depending on territorial context and dominance status? DEADLINE: March 11, 2024 embl.org/about/info/emb…

Day 4 #SNS2024 off to an amazing start with stellar work by Luke Remage-Healey on how local estrogens influence behaviour, neuron ensembles, auditory “scene” discrimination & signaling (w a cool specific action in local E2 in female inhibitory neurons in the NCM) & a new cool term GSI!

We found that cAMP signaling drives sustained activity in the brainstem, enabling long lasting behavioral responses to transient stimuli - now published! great introduction to Mark Andermann’s lab with the inimitable Andrew Lutas Neuron Link: authors.elsevier.com/c/1ig8U3BtfH99…

*PhD student alert* My group MPI for Brain Research is seeking to hire a PhD student to explore the neural basis of instinctive behaviours in mice 🐭 using state-of-the-art molecular tools 🧪 In collab with the one-and-only erin margaret schuma Get in touch via email if interested. Please RT!

New paper out! doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… eLife - the journal

Extremely excited to announce that I've been awarded the prestigious Ramón y Cajal grant! This incredible opportunity allows me to return to Spain and kickstart my own research line on the neural mechanisms for flexible innate behaviors

Excited to share our new review: "Functional diversity along the anteroposterior axis of the ventromedial hypothalamus". This review is part of the special collection after the SNS24 meeting in Torino. Check it out! JNE @Wiley_Health BSN onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
