Looking forward to another day of Neuroscience at the Southern Ontario Neuroscience Association (SONA) 2024 meeting today. Look! They knit custom neuron keychains for speakers. Can't wait to present.

Fantastic work by Karyn Robichaud! Direct effects of venlafaxine on mitochondrial respiration and mitoMIR regulation of COX subunits in the brain of zebrafish! Some of the first evidence that venlafaxine directly affects mitochondrial function in fish!
