🎀🥳🎈It took a pandemic and the birth of the last of my three kids, but I am so excited this is out! Fun collaboration C. Savio Chan! Great editorial experience Communications Biology. Grateful for the support of Aligning Science Across Parkinson’s ASAP Team Awatramani. Thread to follow! Open Science, Northwestern Basic Sciences, #LRRK2

presenting the first Schwarz lab preprint🎉: A Novel Single Vector Intersectional AAV Strategy for Interrogating Cellular Diversity and Brain Function biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/n)

.Connor Courtney, PhD and I wrote a Spotlight article: "Cell type-specific processing of non-motor signals in the external pallidum." Check it out! authors.elsevier.com/a/1gmEKbotq096o

Experience with slice electrophysiology? Interested in leading an ephys core? We have an exciting opportunity at one of the best places to do Neuroscience. Come join us! DM me if interested.

What a beautiful spring day in Chicago.

Great review on GPe complexity and function from Connor Courtney, PhD and the Chan lab. Very timely, the Choi lab recently had 2 papers accepted on GPe astrocytes and arkypallidal neurons in reward-seeking behaviors, stay tuned!

🚨 Big shout out to 2021 Postdoctoral Awardee Connor Courtney, PhD on his new review paper fresh out of the press: Cell and circuit complexity of the external globus pallidus Nature Neuroscience: nature.com/articles/s4159… #Parkinsons Parkinson's Foundation

ICYMI, the paper is now published in Nature Neuroscience! Congrats Connor Courtney, PhD Arin Pamukcu Free link: rdcu.be/deSSQ

Thanks for the shoutout! It was a great experience publishing w/ Nature Neuroscience!

Hope everyone is enjoying a safe, restful break 🇺🇸 #Chicago

This is super good! Clean, fresh, dreamy…I love it!!

The Dept of Neuroscience at Brown University is hiring! A tenure-track Assistant Professor position is available for neuroscientists focusing in any topical area. If you wish to join our inclusive community of dedicated scholars & educators, info & apply @ apply.interfolio.com/132440

GPe neurons are uncorrelated, but in PD become oscillatory & correlated, allegedly disrupting independent channels thru the basal ganglia. Our new preprint, w/ the Wilson lab, shows how phase response curves of independent GP neurons driven by sinusoids predict these correlations

Happy to share that our paper is out Nature Communications! nature.com/articles/s4146… Congrats Lauren Rylaarsdam for leading this project, and co-authors Eleanor Pope and Jennifer Rakotomamonjy Huge thanks pacs1foundation, NINDS #PACS1syndrome #neurodevelopment #organoids #RareDisease
