Having an awesome ISBRA meeting here in Melbourne. We had a really fun panel on neuronal and glial consequences of drug use. Many thanks to @ISBRAComm and @RobynBrownLab. Fantastic talks from @KateReissner, Xavier Maddern, and @morganjameslab,

Really interesting papers, confirming and extending what many believed true for a while. The last 20 years gave us the illusion of super hyper specialization of brain regions thanks to opto/chemogenetics. Turns out we were just under a lamppost. We're in a "neo-Lashley" era. Brain functions are mostly spread out throughout the brain, not in one spot. If you’re not already looking elsewhere than under the lamppost, you should.

"Dopamine was associated with reward learning or sensitivity (SMD, 0.26), and reward vigor (SMD, 0.32). By contrast, serotonin was associated with punishment learning or sensitivity (SMD), and aversive pavlovian processes (within-participant studies only; SMD, 0.36)."

And just like that #CannabinoidGRC2025 comes to an end! Big thank you to my co-chair @CeceHillard and all the attendees and speakers! Congrats to @mayoonthebrain and @ryanmcpickle on their selection as chairs for the 2029 meeting!

📈 New data from NIH-supported Monitoring the Future study at @UMich shows increases in nicotine pouch, cannabis, vaping, & psychedelic use among adults.

Monitoring these trends is vital to set smart public health priorities.

🚨 First paper from the Bocchi lab out now in @NatureComms!
We show that astrocytes in the cortex arise from not one, but two distinct progenitor lineages, each giving rise to specialized subtypes with distinct roles.
