Thank you to the @CannabinoidGrc organizers for such an inspiring and incredibly collegial and supportive conference! A separate shout-out for being so supportive of trainees - congratulations to Gabriella Smith @gabriell_asmith for another successful presentation!
Thank you, @ICRS_Society 2022, for a wonderful meeting in Galway, Ireland! A separate thanks for generous trainee travel awards, which facilitated a great opportunity for them to participate and present their work.
We are recruiting a talented postdoc. We study development and plasticity of cortical interneurons combining multiple cutting-edge techniques. For more details, please send a personal message through twitter.

#eNeuro: Authors characterized gross anatomy of cerebellar midvermis in CB1 knock-out (CB1 KO) mice & performance of CB1 KO mice in cerebellar-influenced motor tasks. Results show persistent and selective anatomic & behavioral alterations in CB1 KO mice. https://t.co/u9ZGSEuopR
Components of Endocannabinoid Signaling System Are Expressed in the Perinatal Mouse Cerebellum and Required for Its Normal Development

All of this work was carried out by amazing undergraduate and post-baccalaureate research assistants. We are very grateful to our colleagues at Gill Center @IU_GillCenter and Psychological and Brain Sciences Department @IUPsych for supporting this work.
Excited to share our latest paper is highlighted on the main page of eNeuro @SfNJournals#eNeuro @IU_GillCenter @IUPsych. We show that components of the endocannabinoid (eCB) signaling system are prominently
expressed in the perinatal mouse hindbrain.

CB1 KOs exhibit impairments in cerebellar-influenced fine-motor, but not gross-motor behaviors. Together, these results illuminate a previously unrecognized role of eCB signaling in the regulation of cerebellar development and function.
