Our paper is officially published!🥳🥳🥳 Many thanks to Dr. Travagli and Browning lab! This work provides the first anatomical and physiological evidence that a nigro-vagal neurocircuit regulates proximal colonic functions in a vagally-dependent manner. physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Congratulations to Lori Hudson for celebrating 25 years at OSU and to Ping Wei for celebrating 30! We are thankful to you both for your contribution to the University and the department. 🎉 🎊

👀 Check out the new Journal of Physiology #PhysiologyShorts with Professor Kirsteen Browning & Kaitlin Carson of Penn State Health which focuses on a perinatal high-fat diet (pHFD), vagal neurocircuits and gastrointestinal motility. 📄: buff.ly/48h4aKv buff.ly/3GJv4yN

Had a short fun time with my lab mates —Solar Eclipse: 92% 😎

Successfully defended my PhD thesis! I am so thankful for my wonderful mentor Dr. Kirsteen Browning and my lab mates who made the last 4+ years so amazing.

Congratulations to our 2023 #EarlyInvestigatorPrize winner in Inter-Organ Physiology: Kaitlin Carson! Carson explored how a perinatal high-fat diet alters oxytocin and corticotropin releasing factor inputs: buff.ly/3DtuNON See all winners: buff.ly/2YUFabZ

What an honor, thank you!

Aging vessel mapping paper is officially out. nature.com/articles/s4146… We examined structural and functional changes of cerebrovasculature and found brain region specific changes in normally aging C57 mice compared to young mice.

Be mindful about axon collateralization! We have changed some experimental strategies based on this discovery. Proud to have the cover image for this journal issue and also a “Featured Article” designation! Happy times. jneurosci.org/content/44/31/…

I am beyond excited to have the first paper from my postdoc here at Albert Einstein College of Medicine - Official published today in Science! This is such a cool story... 🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Congrats to my friend and colleague Guosong Hong for his stunning and original discovery, published today in Science, on clearing tissues *in living animals* with a common food dye! The dye is tartrazine, used in Doritos! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited by our latest joint production discovering body-to-brain communication that controls whole body metabolism. It was a journey and I'm thankful for the support of Guillaume de Lartigue , Javier Stern, and the twitterless Annette de Kloet and Karen Scott. nature.com/articles/s4225…
