New preprint + thread 🧵
#Psychedelics induce the formation of new synapses, but where do they connect?
Our rabies tracing study reveals that #psilocybin shifts connectivity across specific cortical networks.

Excited to showcase as a co-first author our latest work "Adaptive Evolution of Gene Regulatory Networks in Mammalian Neocortical Neurons" https://t.co/rIN7S96U87
Our scientists with over 150 collaborators have released the largest functional map and wiring diagram of the brain to date – seven years in the making.
Today’s 1.6 petabyte release marks a historic day for neuroscience. This moonshot milestone will further efforts towards understanding the cortical mechanisms of intelligence. Congratulations to the teams who made this possible.
Thrilled to share our latest paper from Sestan lab on the development of the claustro-amygdala complex is published in Nature https://t.co/Yd0JaLh8U4. A big thank you to all our collaborators and mentors. @MarinaP63 @rkovner88 @kartikpattabir1@DavidAndrijevic
NEW: Today, I’m releasing a Surgeon General’s Advisory on the causal link between alcohol consumption and increased cancer risk. Alcohol is the 3rd leading preventable cause of cancer in the U.S., contributing to about 100,000 cancer cases and 20,000 cancer deaths each year.
This light-sheet microscopy three-dimensional rendering shows a first-of-its-kind mouse whole-brain mRNA analysis at single-cell resolution.

Finally!! Super Excited to share this work! Here, we show the role of transcription factors in the development of basolateral amygdala and its connectivity to PFC. I will post an updated soon!
Had fun writing my first Preview highlighting cool work connecting meningeal lymphatics and brain myelination from @Da_Mesquita_S lab! Congrats to the authors and grateful to the Chan lab for their feedback on this piece 🙏
