This week, a special issue of Science explores the complex and close associations #rats share with humans—from their ubiquity in the human environment to their crucial role as biomedical models. 🐀 Learn more: bit.ly/3zmHdtA

Hippocampus generates an internal model of Euclidean space. We ventured in a spatial odyssey exploring how much of the internal model is a priori, innate (Nature) and what is contributed by postnatal experience of Euclidean geometry (Nurture) Our answer@ nature.com/articles/s4146…👇

Fantastic work from our colleague Scott Russo Congrats 🎉 🎊 Delighted to contribute a bit to this landmark study~

🎉CONGRATULATIONS to Drs. Sangjo Kang & Tadaaki Nishioka on receiving the 2025 Doft Family Postdoc Innovator Award! Made possible by the generosity of the Doft family, this award supports an innovative research project that will help the postdoc’s transition to independence.

.Friedman Brain Institute & Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai congratulate Eric J. Nestler, MD, PhD for his election to National Academy of Sciences of the USA. This great honor recognizes Dr Nestler’s cutting-edge work on the molecular basis of drug addiction & depression & on advancing the field of psychiatry into the molecular era

It was a great honor earlier today to host Renée Fleming at Friedman Brain Institute to highlight the ability of music and other creative arts to promote brain health and offer relief for people with a neurological or psychiatric disorder, offering inspiration and exciting ideas for science.

Congrats 🎉 to our MDPhD student Dr. Samuel Allen PhD Friedman Brain Institute for his successful defense today! Many thanks to committee members Flavio Frohlich PhD Friedel Lab Rudebeck Lab & Dr. Foss-Feig for their support 🙏

Congrats to our postdoc Dr. Tadaaki Nishioka, who also recently received K99 award from NIMH!🎊 Way to go!!
