#JNeurosci: Findings from Pinkston et al. identify BDNF–TrkB.T1 communication as a key molecular pathway guiding astrocyte‑mediated synaptogenesis with broad implications for neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders.

Speaking of our Department, this work just dropped from twitterless Dr. Bhanu Tewari and our Chair Dr. Harry Sontheimer on the dance between PNNs and astrocytes. There's glia, there's epilepsy, AD, electrophysiology, and excitment galore. Enjoy!!! 🤩🥳👏🏾https://t.co/1TV6x43eev
