Elated to announce that I’m starting as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Integrative Biology at UT Austin, well today! We'll be recruiting for several positions soon & grad students for 2025. Interested in phenotypic evodevo, me too! sites.utexas.edu/beccayoungevod…

As some of you may know, my journey has been different. I am grateful for and proud of those experiences and I look forward to sharing them with trainees as we work towards our mutual research and professional goals.

Such a great paper! Bravo!

The latest from the lab is out now in Current Biology! Led by the amazing Brandon Fricker, with help from Malavika Murugan, we identified a neural circuit that facilitates affiliative peer-group preferences in spiny mice. Emory University sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Sarah Muh is kicking off Day 2 of the SBN Online Research Symposium! Sarah is a graduate student in the Hofmann Lab at UT Austin who studies the neuro-molecular mechanisms of social behavior in cichlid fish. 🐟🧠🧬

I will be looking for PhD and/or Int PhD students starting in 2025, so if you're interested in joining my lab (or any others in the TIFR system) as a graduate student please apply!

Excited to announce that our 2025 Advanced Research Training Course schedule is up and applications are open! 🎉🎉🎉 See you in Woods Hole! mbl.edu/courses

Applications are now open for NS&B 2025! We will run from June 8- July 21. Applications are due FEB 1st. For more info: mbl.edu/education/adva…

I am recruiting graduate students to join my new lab at Dept of Psych UAlberta in Fall 2025! The application deadline is December 1st. If you're interested in neuroscience, endocrinology, animal behavior, and/or seasonal biology, please reach out! 🐟🧠🧬🍂

Engaging tweetorial on a very cool study that functionally connects socially salient sensory input in the auditory pallium to a neural substrate in the ventromedial hypothalamus that regulates subsequent context-appropriate behavior! Kudos, really well done!

Are testosterone pulses a physiological mechanism for expanding activity beyond territories? | Royal Society Open Science royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs… Congratulations Rada and Matina! Magnificent field work by Rada. T-effects are context dependent.

It’s not easy at the top. New UT Austin research finds those at the top of a social hierarchy experience more stress when they drop in social rank & experience more changes in the brain than those that climb the social ladder. Hofmann Lab #TexasScience cns.utexas.edu/news/research/…

I’m excited to share our publication from @Dulac_lab in nature, where we illuminate the development of hypothalamic cell types involved in a broad range of functions, from social behaviors to thirst, thermoregulation, and sleep. Highlights below! 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4158…

US biomedical science is way too self-congratulatory. Yes, we've made amazing progress in many areas. But after receiving nearly a TRILLION DOLLARS in federal funds this century, significant progress is a MINIMAL EXPECTATION - not some miraculous gift to society. The field in so
