so proud our work linking dopamine dynamics to brain-wide changes during learning is published! working with @AmirLawen was a privilege — he’s an incredible leader, thinker, and scientist. it was a delight to bring our scientific strengths together and find something very cool 🤩

Dopamine shifts from reward to cue during learning. But how is this reflected across the brain?

Combining NAc dopamine photometry with whole-brain fMRI in behaving mice, we link this classic dopamine dynamic to brain-wide changes as learning unfolds.

Excited to see our fMRI paper is out, led by Itamar Kahn’s lab. Our grad students, Amir Lawen and Bella Succi, in collab with Darcy Peterka, built a setup for simultaneous fMRI and dopamine fiber photometry in awake behaving mice.

For those of you attending #SfN2023, be sure to check out some of the ongoing work in the lab.

In addition to my SFNova Lecture, we have six poster presentations shown below with details.

Did you know the #Dobbs decision is preventing girls & women who are NOT PREGNANT from getting medications needed to treat their autoimmune diseases?

@corinne_merlino so proud of you!!!! I’ve watched in awe at your hard work and dedication and I’m so so excited for this next chapter 🎈🥂🩷

[Isabella Succi @IsabellaSucci]

a great meeting!! all the warmth of a lab meeting with the major scientific impact of a conference. huge thanks to the organizers!

[Ishmail Abdus-Saboor @IshmailSaboor]

Amazing pain neuroscience and fellowship at the first annual Northeast Pain Meeting, hosted this year @ZuckermanBrain and co-organized by myself, @VannaZachariou @VAbraira @justin_burdge.

Very nice write-up on our recent social touch paper. The authors do a great job of positioning our work in the larger field and they correctly predict some of our future directions.

We are looking for a research staff assistant to be part of our team @ZuckermanBrain. The individual will support projects aiming to understand high-order cognition and flexible behaviors in mice and have a chance to gain hands-on research experience. https://t.co/pRNYRWOKgj

@jessiburd @VikramGadagkar @Marc_F_Schmidt @IshmailSaboor congrats jessie!! 🎉🎈

[Isabella Succi @IsabellaSucci]

@ClaraLiff @bjmarlin columbia is so so lucky 🫶🏼 congratulations!! 🥂

[Zoe Donaldson @DrZoePhD]

Preprint alert! We wrestled with implementing photometry in voles, so @KathleenZMurphy spearheaded a protocol that includes advice on best practices and a flexible Photometry Analysis Toolkit (PhAT). No coding experience required! @NeuPhotometrics

Study reveals a skin-to-brain neural circuit that responds to rewarding forms of social touch. The findings could provide an avenue for harnessing the power of touch to assist in treating social and emotional disorders.

1. Thrilled to share my thesis work, out today at @CellCellPress! How does the brain perceive social touch as pleasant? Our story takes us from the skin to the brain to answer this question...
