(1/6) We have a new paper out in #eNeuro!

How does the brain’s reward processing change across social contexts? We mapped brain activity (cFos) & found that social context reshapes how reward circuits are coordinated🐭🏆

Excited to share our new research!

What drives behavior that is in the interest of others, versus selfish behavior? New preclinical findings by MBI researchers suggest it’s both genetic background and individual social preferences that influence brain networks.

Inspired by mentoring students who aspire MD-PhDs, I decide to interview @BrianMSweis who is very passionate about physician scientist education. If you are a trainee considering this path, or mentoring a trainee who is considering this path, listen!!

[storiesofWiN @storiesofwin]

Thinking about pursuing an MD-PhD? In this special episode, we sit down with Dr. Brian Sweiss (@BrianMSweis) to break down what you actually need to know about physician scientist training!

🎧 Full interview below!
