*New preprint* Our meta-analysis on neonate ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) in the maternal immune activation 🐀 model revealed sex differences in USVs vary with developmental stage and are more pronounced in MIA offspring: https://t.co/eVYrBIz0Iu

Make sure to join and share your thoughts on shifting to one competition. If they don't hear from us, this will probably go through and make the current situation look like the good old days!

Grateful to MP @LailaGoodridge for meeting the @CAN_ACN team, reinforcing commitment to research and innovation. Together, we can push the boundaries of discovery in Canada! Thank you for recognizing that Science does not have a political colour.

[Dr. Liisa Galea @LiisaGalea]

Delighted to meet my new MP & neighbour @marcomendicino! We talked democracy, health science, innovation, gene editing, women in STEM & 🧠 health. That’s a wrap 4 Team A at the 4th annual @CAN_ACN Hill day rep ~1000 🇨🇦neuroscientists! (Despite the pic I’m not always in the dark)

[Dr. Liisa Galea @LiisaGalea]

Another fantastic meeting advocating for 🧠 science through @CAN_ACN with @Yasir_Naqvi PS to Min of Health 🇨🇦 with powerhouse group of researchers.

Thank you to the Associate VP @RobinCraig123 & Director of Research, Grants & Scholarships, Kristina Archibald @NSERC_CRSNG for meeting with @CAN_ACN reps to discuss the urgent need for investing in research & next generation of scientists! #CANHilllDay #CANDayonTheHill

[CAN ACN @CAN_ACN]

Merci aux députés Maxime Blanchette-Joncas et Andréanne Larouche pour votre engagement et votre soutien pour la recherche scientifique au Canada #CANHillDay #neuroadvocate

[CAN ACN @CAN_ACN]

Excited to meet with an amazing group of neuroadvocates! #CANHillDay24 #CANHillDay

[CAN ACN @CAN_ACN]

Getting ready to start #CanHillDay in Ottawa this morning with our great #neuroadvocates

How is this still even possible that in 2024, we're still debating if women should have bodily autonomy rights? Seriously, what's next? Are we going to take their voting rights away? driver's licenses? Their right to an education? Tell them how to dress? I'm so sick and tired ..

Congrats to the lead authors of this work @amrandell4 & @SaliaStephanie, team member Lucas Fowler, and our collaborators @ToePSU and David Puts!

We discuss how analyzing USV call types and incorporating sex as a biological variable can enhance our understanding of neonatal ultrasonic communication, a critical early measure of social communication in preclinical models of neurodevelopmental conditions.
