Very happy part of my doctoral work is now published at #JNeurosci We examine how subcortical signals are routed through higher order thalamus to impact local cortical circuits! Check it out at the link below 🎉
Excited to share our new J Neurosci paper showing how subcortical inputs are routed through ventromedial (VM) thalamus to layer 1 interneurons in the medial PFC, all done by my graduate student Sanne Casello:

I am excited to share some new results investigating how subcortical signals are channeled via VM to engage specific inhibitory networks in L1 of mPFC. Check out our preprint linked below if you’re interested in reading more! 🥳

I was fortunate to be part of the NIH postbac intramural program after undergrad - a transformative experience that catalyzed my career and led me to where I am today. There is no world where we should we diminish investment in the next generation of our scientific researchers.

Happy to see this out in @NeuroCellPress. Huikun Wang, a staff scientist in our lab, demonstrates that ventromedial prefrontal cortical dynorphin signaling constrains threat-driven passive defensive behavior and switches in network states. Thread below.

Happy to share a new preprint from the lab. Here we show that prefrontal cortical dynorphin peptidergic transmission regulates threat-inducef behavioral and prefrontal cortical network transitions.
Excited to announce the Center for Neural Science (CNS) at NYU is searching for a new tenure-track faculty member — applications are due January 1 — Please RT!
