Postdoc Scientist @ Yale Neurology - BS degree in Pharmacy from Nepal, MS from S. Korea, PhD from Australia - working on Parkinson's disease mouse model at Yale
NCAM2 deficiency disrupts the organization of the hippocampus, which plays a crucial role in memory formation and retrieval, leading to issues with short-term memory, cognitive flexibility, and the development of autistic-like behaviors. Our new study

Grateful to have contributed to a study led by Feifei Su @UNSW, exploring how NEGR1 deficiency affects GAD65 accumulation, synaptic GABA synthesis, and feeding behavior. NEGR1 influences GABAergic signaling, with potential links to psychiatric disorders. [https://t.co/h8cUMgcGtx]
Dr. Nolwazi Gcwensa's paper was accepted to Neurobiology of Disease.She examined synapses in the amygdala with synuclein aggregates because of role of amygdala as emotion center of brain. Found increased volume of synapses with abnormal synuclein! https://t.co/2NadjpscnP
We have a postdoc opening in the lab - use functional imaging and connectomics to investigate how computations are achieved in brain circuits! 🔬🧠🥳Fully funded and flexible in scope - more info on our website: https://t.co/zFrrhAQJzO. Pls RT!
Chuffed to have had the opportunity to present my research on the regulation of BACE1 transport and activity at #ANS2023. A big thanks to everyone involved on this final slide, and to everyone I spoke to after the session for your interest in our work.
🎉Congratulations to A/Prof. Vladimir Sytnyk & co-authors who won Paper of the Month for their paper published in Cerebral Cortex @OxfordJournals with an impact factor score of 3.7! Read more about their paper below ⬇️
I'm pleased to share our latest publication on Acanthamoeba (Ac)🦠where for the first time, we investigated Ac incidence in coastal seawater in Australia.
This study assessed a year of coastal water (Aug 2019 - July 2020). @nicole_carnt @FionaHenriquez

Micronutrients and synapse biology are linked! Our results reveal that the human milk sugar myo-inositol promotes how nerve cells form connections, including human neurons. Our partners at Mead Johnson Nutrition/Reckitt provided the lead. See PNAS article https://t.co/qQ68arOgHD.
📢We are excited to announce Vol. II of the highly impactful and timely Research Topic "Molecular Mechanisms of Glutamatergic Synapse Function and Dysfunction"!
