@ScottAppliedSci That's interesting! How about changing the diet to low carb, high fat, instead of only adding fats without significant changes in carb intake?

You probably know someone who sleeps 7–8 hrs every night and still wakes up exhausted every morning. There's a name for it: Non-Restorative Sleep. Up to 1 in 3 adults may have it. Most have never heard the term — and most doctors can't find it on any test. 😬 #sleep #SleepScience

@LocasaleLab Sounds like an ageism argument. Early career is not equal to young career. Not everyone has a linear career development.

@DrEthanAnderson Congratulations, Ethan! 👏

I'm thrilled to announce that I just got my first R01 from NIAAA! 1R01AA031007. I'm hiring here in Baton Rouge, LA, so message me if you are interested in working on this alcohol grant, or on other projects in lab involving opioid use!

Excited to share our new paper in Neuropharmacology: "Perinatal and Prenatal Alcohol Exposure Impairs Striatal Cholinergic Function and Cognitive Flexibility in Adult Offspring." It shows PAE impairs striatal cholinergic activity and promotes compulsive alcohol drinking.

Sleep is one of the earliest systems to go awry in neurodegenerative diseases—yet remains vastly under-recognized and under-studied. Excited for Sharon Naismith's #AAIC2025 plenary: a wake-up call to the field on why sleep matters🧠💤 #sleepresearch #Dementia @SleepPIA @ISTAART

[Senator Thom Tillis @SenThomTillis]

America must remain a global leader in science. That’s why I joined my Senate GOP colleagues in urging OMB to release NIH funds Congress has already appropriated for critical research in cancer, heart disease, and rare disorders.

[ACNP @ACNPorg]

The #UnitedforCures coalition is fighting to protect and restore funding for critical biomedical research. Read today’s @POLITICOPulse newsletter to learn more: https://t.co/bQGaQnYrwd
