Check out some of my thesis work from the Birdsong Lab at UMich 🐭 If you’re at sfn I’d love to chat about this work, delta opioid receptors and what’s coming next! @willbirdsong00 @SfNtweets

Delta Opioid Receptors on Parvalbumin Neurons are Necessary for the Convulsant and Anxiolytic Effects of the Delta Agonist SNC80 https://t.co/5pHwBIw6a0 #biorxiv_neursci

If you’re at #WinterBrain2024 come check out our panel this morning! You won’t want to miss out on talks about Delta Opioid Receptor Function in Pain and Reward Circuits from me, @Jutkiewicz_Lab, @LouisGendron100 and Elizaveta Mangutov! @winter_brain @willbirdsong00

[Marie Walicki @mcwalicki]

Woo Hoo go Liz and the Birdsong lab! Check out this paper y’all

[Will Birdsong @willbirdsong00]

We’re happy to share Liz Jaeckel, @arias_hervert and our team’s work that found opposite changes in thalamic inputs to the cortex and the striatum following morphine exposure. Congratulations Liz! You can read the work here…

@audreydrotos Do it! Otherwise you are always welcome to visit Caesar (and me)

So where in my CV do I put that I am now highly skilled at getting the last of the shampoo/conditioner/condiment out of a container by using the same method that I flick my internal into my pipette?

[Marie Walicki @mcwalicki]

I love the ephys “first patch” experiences, and I have to share a funny one from yesterday. A rotation student finally got their pipette down onto a cell, and as they were about to make a seal they turned to me and said, “wait can I go to the bathroom real quick?!”and broke in🤣

@gavinpschmitz MiniAnalysis, my old foe. 😭
