Thanks/kudos to co-first authors @VickyChuong & @sophia_khom, plus everyone else who made this #teamscience possible: @claire_pince @RenataMarchette @Lorenzo__Leggio & Twitterless folks.

More to come, e.g., an RCT 👇, population studies, non-alcohol drugs, and other GLP-1 meds!

🚨 The glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue semaglutide reduces alcohol drinking and modulates central GABA neurotransmission 🚨

Super excited to see this FINALLY out in @JCI_insight.

We made a new glutamate indicator with improved sensitivity, kinetics & localization for imaging synaptic transmission.

This is #iGluSnFR3 in action detecting minis w/ TTX.
