Fun way to begin my twitter journey! Check out this cool finding in synaptic signaling that our SnyderLab team and friends have been working on.

if you are #premed or contemplating a career as an #mdphd, several of us from HopkinsMDPhD and McGill Medicine and Health Sciences came together to write a text that we hope you find helpful! had fun writing w/ @jaredhinkle4 on applying to programs and defining your thesis! mhprofessional.com/9781260462272-…

was itchin' to see this fantastic overview by Ruchita Kothari on the latest developments in MRGPRs! these receptors have fundamentally reshaped our understanding of pruritus in disease cell.com/trends/pharmac… Trends in Pharmacological Sciences

New spotlight article from Ruchita Kothari and Xinzhong Dong Ruchita Kothari Johns Hopkins Medicine Hopkins Neuroscience highlighting recent nature articles on human itch GPCRs from the labs of Bryan Roth BryanRoth UNC Pharmacology and Jinpeng Sun. cell.com/trends/pharmac…

learning about the molecules that make up synapses were what originally inspired me to become a scientist, and so i am incredibly excited to share this new chapter in heme metabolism outlining a new role for BVR in synaptic plasticity science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Science Signaling

Big congratulations to Yang!! Can't wait to see the awesome new tools he works on as a new faculty!

So happy to be a part of yet another exciting discovery by Chirag Vasavda and team!!

So excited and honored to join the Osler family and meet everyone in the program! Thank you for all the support from my friends, family, and mentors. @OsleResidency @CleClinicLCM

I'm excited to share our new study published in Cell. This work uncovers a critical role for dural mast cells in shaping cerebrospinal fluid flow and protecting the brain from infection. cell.com/action/showPdf…

Now online! A mast cell receptor mediates post-stroke brain inflammation via a dural-brain axis dlvr.it/TM5jPh

New issue alert👉cell.com/cell/current On the cover: Kothari et al. and Mamuladze et al. characterize the role of meningeal mast cells in two distinct pathologies, stroke and meningitis. The image depicts meningeal mast cells surrounding the brain, as stars surround the Earth
