I rarely tweet-I’d rather learn & amplify/RT others. *However would you please RT this rare original thread from me?* It’s about a new neuroscience center (and new building!!) Children's Hospital CHOP Research Penn Medicine Penn Medicine CSO & a search for a new tenuretrk colleague… 1/4

PhDone!! So happy and relieved to have successfully defended my dissertation research this past week!!! #BlackInNeuro

Well done, Dr Farris!

Upcoming NSAS course on Learning and Memory (Sept 14-21, 2024). Featuring Richard Morris, Yadin Dudai (Yadin Dudai), Liz Phelps (Phelps Lab), Susumu Tonegawa, Karl Deisseroth (Karl Deisseroth), Laura Colgin (Laura Colgin) and me! Apply! neurosas.org/advanced-cours…

Our #brainbody paper showing Sex-specific role of high-fat diet and repeated stress on behavior, energy metabolism, and the ventromedial hypothalamus is out in ⁦⁦Biology of Sex Differences⁩. Congratulations to Sanutha Shetty and team. Cameron McAlpine⁩ 👏🏽✨ bsd.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

💥We're hiring!💥 We're recruiting a locum editor, especially someone with expertise in cellular/molecular neuroscience, neurodegeneration, or neuroimmunology. This is a great way to test out an editorial career and see if it's for you! springernature.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/SpringerNature…

And it's a book! Together with Steve Ramirez, we have gathered some of the leading experts in the field who have generously contributed with a chapter of what has become the first ever book on #engram biology! 📖🔥🧠Come take a look! ⬇️⬇️⬇️ link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Calling all neuroscience postdocs.....Less than a month left to apply to TigerBrain!

Please reach out to us if you are interested in doing a postdoc in research related to substance use disorders! Pittsburgh is a wonderful place to train with fantastic faculty doing basic, translational and clinical research.

And it’s out!! Check out the newest paper from our lab on how chromatin plasticity predetermines neuronal selection for memory trace formation | science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… 🧵

So happy to share our new work that is now out @sciencemagazine: We show how neurons in the mouse zona incerta (ZI) modulate infant social behaviors and learning. This work was led by the AMAZING graduate student Yuexuan Li Yuexuan Li 李玥璇. 🎉science.org/doi/epdf/10.11… #ScienceResearch

Happy #BINW24 🎉 I am Tonie Farris, an incoming postdoctoral associate at Duke University in the Silva Lab at Duke , and recent PhD grad of Meharry medical college where I studied neuroimmune mechanisms of aging and age-related diseases. #BlackInNeuroRollCall #BlackInNeuro

Happy to share that Eric Szelenyi work is now out in PNASNews! This has been a true labor of love for Eric, and will be a benefit to the behavioral/whole brain imaging community (and probably others we haven't thought of).

On Sept. 24, the #BrainBodyCenter Seminar Series returns! JOIN Yale University's Dr. Elena Gracheva & explore the mechanisms that support #Hibernation & enable hibernators to survive prolonged periods of hypothermia, water deprivation & starvation?🐻 Register Now: tinyurl.com/5n72zfh2

Thrilled to have been selected Society for Neuroscience (SfN) — see y’all in my favorite city to learn about dopaminoceptive cells in the ventral hippocampus in associative learning processes

We are excited to share Kim Thibeault's paper Biological Psychiatry. We show that repeated cocaine exposure decreases the number of cocaine-activated neurons in the nucleus accumbens. This smaller ensemble of neurons controls behavior more robustly. doi.org/10.1016/j.biop… A thread:

Happy to share the latest paper from our research group Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai Mount Sinai Department of Medicine Mount Sinai Psychiatry Friedman Brain Institute on #coping in #healthcareworkers Sharp Index

Beautiful! A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to this AMAZING team!

Our department is hiring! Come work with a wonderful group of people doing great science in a supportive, family friendly, and fun department! Plus you get to live in a really beautiful and laid back place. nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

A highly informative article in the New York Times about the powerful interplay between chronic stress and general medical conditions. Scott Russo and his work in Friedman Brain Institute's Brain and Body Research Center are heavily cited. nytimes.com/2024/06/27/wel…
