[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

I am so stoked to share that my first first-author paper is out! We explored the interesting and mysterious claustrum, using qPCR, RNAscope, and electrophysiology to probe the role of serotonin and psychedelics in claustrum signaling to the anterior cingulate cortex🧵⬇️

In 30 minutes, Monica Bertagnolli, MD, Director of the National Institutes of Health, delivers her livestream presentation. Join us at 11:15 am for key insights into the @NIH's mission to improve health through biomedical research.

It was so much fun giving my @UKYNeuro seminar talk today! Thanks for all who came out.

[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

If you want to learn about psychedelics, come to my talk today at the Dean’s Distinguished Lecture Series! @UKYNeuro @ResearchKY @UKYneuroscience @BGSO_UKY

[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

Had an awesome time presenting at the 2024 Substance Use Research Event! Rather than a talk about my data, this presentation was about an amazing opportunity I had working with the Survivors Union of the Bluegrass. Community involvement in research benefits everyone! @UK_Supra_

[BGSO UKY @BGSO_UKY]

What an incredible talk from Gaylene Anderson at the IBS Trainee Research Day today!

[BGSO UKY @BGSO_UKY]

Can’t wait to hear our keynote speaker, Gaylene Anderson, at 12:30 at Trainee Research Day!!!

[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

I have arrived at #WCBR2024 and I’m ready to ski and science! Come check out my posters on Wednesday at 3:30 pm and 7:30 pm if you want to learn about psychedelics and the claustrum! @winter_brain

[PhD_Genie @PhD_Genie]

The academic way...

[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

I had the best time at #SFN2023
My talk and poster presentations went great, I saw lots of old friends, and I made many new ones too. Can’t wait to see everyone again next year! @SfNtweets

Excited to share our research at #SfN2023! @SelenicaLab @DanLeeLab @UKYMedicine @UK_CCTS @UKYneuroscience @SfNtweets

[Patty Doyle 🧠🧬 @phdoyleneuro]

Tonight I collected my first rapid post-mortem brain samples. I have to say that after seeing a fresh brain from autopsy I am forever changed. I’m so grateful to the donors for trusting us with this privilege and allowing us to learn all we can from them.

[Navid Tavakoli @navid_tavakoli_]

It was super duper cool to be talking about my work looking at how astrocyte activity in the dorsal striatum regulates cue-induced reinstatement of cocaine seeking today at @SfNtweets!!

[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

Heading to my third and final presentation today at #SFN2023 Come by my poster (BB8) for the @SfNtweets Trainee Professional Development Award poster session at 6:30 pm to talk about psychedelics and claustrum serotonin receptors!

[Tanner Anderson, PhD @EphysTanner]

I am so grateful to have been selected for the #SFN2023 Trainee Professional Development Travel Award! I can’t wait to see all of the great science there and present my data on psychedelics and claustrum serotonin receptors! See y’all there! @SfNtweets
