[UF McKnight Brain Institute @UFMBI]

It was a full house Monday for a Lunch & Learn providing the latest info on MBI Molecular Biology Core upgrades, including new technology, services & expertise. Drs. Eduardo Candelario-Jalil & Freddyson Martínez-Rivera delved into how these resources support neuro research at UF.

On Saturday, the MBI welcomed over 30 homeschool students from across Florida for a Brain Awareness Week celebration led by @NcfSfn volunteers.

Students enjoyed art projects, lab tours, Q&A sessions with researchers & bike helmet giveaways.

Curious how astrocytes in the PFC regulate the negative effects of stress?
Read our preprint on Biorxiv now:

So excited to start my astrocyte journey with @holtlm90 & @EricJNestler!! 🧠

PS: hear all about it at Winter Brain this Sunday (5-7pm).

Really excited to announce that the Holt lab will be starting in January 2026 @CSARtemplemed @katztemplemed! Interested in the role of gene regulation, astrocytes, and addiction? I'm hiring at all positions! DM or email me! https://t.co/j7L88f7ocK

Thrilled to wrap up the year and my postdoc work in the Nester lab with this publication 🥳! We show that astrocytic CREB regulates astrocyte calcium and D1-MSN activity to drive behavioral response to cocaine. https://t.co/WX01yKEG2p

[Eric J. Nestler, MD, PhD @EricJNestler]

Please see this new publication by Leanne Holt and colleagues in @ScienceAdv that defines a role for CREB, acting within astrocytes of the nucleus accumbens, to control the activity of medium spiny neurons and consequently behavioral responses to cocaine. https://t.co/WqtaoZLkx5

(1/6) We have a new paper out in #eNeuro!

How does the brain’s reward processing change across social contexts? We mapped brain activity (cFos) & found that social context reshapes how reward circuits are coordinated🐭🏆
