Our latest study is available as a preprint.
We show that psychedelics induce subtle changes in gene expression but robust changes in alternative splicing lasting at least one month, suggesting that alternative splicing may represent a general mechanism for prolonged plasticity.

Congrats to MCB's Andrea Gomez @IndigeNerd for being on Science News' list of 10 scientists who are transforming our horizons! https://t.co/XLKgtfeoZl via @Society4Science
Our new Neuro Department is searching for an Assistant professor in Systems, Computational, and Cognitive Neuroscience. Apply now and come be my colleague!! @UCBerkeleyNeuro 🧠https://t.co/9hW3nolSLU
Excited to share our new preprint on connectomic analysis of fly taste circuits!
We used the connectome to identify neurons and brain regions involved in taste processing, compare properties of neurons that process different tastes, and more! https://t.co/UblvOI5UJY
Feeling energized after reading PLAYING WITH REALITY. @kellybclancy's neuro-basis exploration of our naive optimism in game theory and its influence on AI is an absolute delight and an all-time favorite read.
Bridging the Gap: This meeting will provide a unique space to discuss approaches in linking neural stem cells with the formation of circuits and the emergence of behaviors. Apply - there are many slots for oral presentations. Thank you, @janeliaconf & see you all soon!
https://t.co/JoLZoIiYFU is soliciting applications for an Assistant Professor position studying fundamental aspects of genetics, genomics, evolution, and/or developmental biology. Bring it on!
