NCL lab retreat 😎
We trained to give brief talks about our projects, discussed science, ate delicious BBQ and hiked!

@DrNancyPadilla & I had a lot of fun writing about this cool new paper https://t.co/grbyhpYrJx which reports a novel, non-violent, subordination method that potently (only 4 days!) produces long-lasting changes in social rank, reward seeking, & coping style 1/3

We are attending #SfN2022!

See our new systematic review and meta-analysis paper: Early-life adversity affects only some reward processes and what matters most is its length! @circuits_lab @Rene_Hen @BalsamPeter https://t.co/cPwlB1TGEA

[Joe Stujenske @jmstujenske]

Anyone looking for a faster solution for visualizing a large (e.g., 512x512x50000+ frame) tiff stack than ImageJ? I wrote a solution in Matlab (TiffViewer), which currently has limited functionality. https://t.co/JMqldJbKwe
I welcome contributors to expand functionality.

❗️New review out from our team!!
Check it out if you are interested to know how stress affects different circuits within brain reward system and how that translates to changes in motivated behavior!

Congrats to @USkupio on the publication of a review of the role of endocannabinoid signaling in glia from her work in the @MarsicanoLab https://t.co/V4DgGwyf8M
Here’s to many more!

⚠️New paper alert⚠️Laura Benoit and colleagues show that inhibiting thalamic activity during adolescence leads to cognitive impairment and changes in prefrontal cortex function in adulthood.
Great collaboration with @CKellendonk and Sarah Canetta!

Hello science twitter! 🧠😃 We are excited to launch our new lab account where we will share exciting science in the field of stress and reward systems as well as updates from our daily lab life!
