New paper out from the group. We examined the transcriptional profile of isolated microglia, with a focus on brain region and sex differences.

While harmless moles are common, some grow until they turn into melanoma, the most deadly type of skin cancer. New @BUMedicine research shows activating a set of genes—the Hippo tumor suppressor pathway—restrains the growth of melanoma cells in moles. ➡️ https://t.co/pcuBU28Ng2

Interest talk by Kelly Wingfield from @CamronBryantPhD Lab at BU on the genetic of neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome in mice !

[Camron Bryant @CamronBryantPhD]

Kelly Wingfield's (PhD candidate, @PharmBU) abstract "Behavioral differences in neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) model traits in FVB substrains following perinatal morphine exposure", was selected for a talk at @CpdaConference at Northeastern Univ. #slaying #killingit

[Camron Bryant @CamronBryantPhD]

I'm RT'ing to promote Jacob Beierle, PhD candidate in @PharmBU and 1st author of this paper who will defend late spring/early summer and is on the job market. He's super talented in mouse behavior, proteins, quant. genetics, & genomics & wants to branch out humans.

[Dr. Maddie Ray @maddiehray]

I’m excited to share some of my preliminary snRNAseq data from human postmortem brain with the Whitaker Cardiovascular Institute today! @BUMedicine @PharmBU

[SfN Journals @SfNJournals]

#eNeuro: Borrelli & Yao, @CamronBryantPhD et al. @BUMedicine describe a mouse model for Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome that leads to sex-dependent differences in neonatal withdrawal behaviors and brainstem gene expression. https://t.co/azRnpBFG53

To all lucky participants of #ACNP2021. Check out @wickedneuro poster! #proteomics #synaptosomes #humanbrain #Opioidusedisorders @PittPsychiatry @PharmBU

[Camron Bryant @CamronBryantPhD]

@KatieSena6 presented her @BU_UROP project on neuronal adaptations in microglial & myelin proteins during neonatal opioid withdrawal in mice. Great job, Katie! Thx to Jake Beierle (PhD candidate, @PharmBU, for working w Katie on this award! & thank you @BU_UROP for your support!

[Dr. Maddie Ray @maddiehray]

🚨Job opening for a research assistant level 3 🚨

The Logan lab is looking for a RA to come work with us at @PharmBU on projects focusing on opioid use & analgesia! Mouse colony management and rodent experience preferred! Please RT and share!

OUD affects genes associated with proinflammatory immune molecule encoding and genes associated with remodeling the extracellular matrix, suggesting the connection between neurons may be altered as a result of opioid use.

Welcome!

[Dr. Maddie Ray @maddiehray]

✨ Life Update ✨ I am absolutely thrilled to announce that I have accepted a postdoctoral fellowship with @wickedneuro at @BUMedicine!

I’m looking forward to learning new skills, exploring a new area of neuroscience, & staying in my favorite city!

The interview process can feel intimidating - but it doesn’t have to be!

This workshop will guide students and post-doctoral scholars on how to sharpen your interview skills. We will also go over some common interview questions and mistakes to avoid.

[Amanda Bolgioni-Smith @abolgioni]

A call out for feedback from my fellow @PharmBU who graduated the past 10 years between 2011-2021 to fill out by 4/19!
Faculty value your experiences and insights since you finished the program and entered the workplace to enhance their PhD training https://t.co/YUHAwzwtAh
