My first research paper is now online! Together with em. prof. dr. E. Ronald de Kloet, I wrote a review article titled "Stress-induced plasticity and functioning of ventral tegmental dopamine neurons". The article is open access and can be found here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Work-from-home made me create this account for catching up science going on ...!👩‍🔬

Thank you! Quarantine is actually good timing to put everything together and develop my plan. 🏖

amazing endorsement of the ~5 min process and "full_dog" 🥳🐶 (that is a tough, but super cute, one!) mousemotorlab.org/dlc-modelzoo (all these awesome videos are really making this worth it! Thank you!)

(1/6) New preprint from our group: Neurochemical signaling of reward and aversion by ventral tegmental area glutamate neurons Project spearheaded by Dillon J McGovern and collaboration with Abby Polter (hooked up through New PI Slack !)

なんか今号のNeuronはやたらに重要論文ラッシュだな． 神経回路網が生体脳で見られているように動くには，興奮性入力と抑制性入力がある比率でバランスしていることが重要だと考えられている(E/Iバランス)．そのE/Iバランスは樹状突起の局所レベルですでに成り立っている． cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

I have a BNST joke, but the timing's a little off... Happy to share new work 🔥 from the Steve Maren 🐀🧠💭😨 lab! Led by rockstar Reed Ressler, with special appearance by Carolyn G Evemy! I'm also technically on the paper. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

A big part of my initial PhD work has been published on Journal of Neuroscience Research (@wileyneurosci)! Soon to be part of a Special Issue titled "Tackling the opioid crisis: novel mechanisms and clinical perspectives". onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
