Excited to share our new Cell Reports paper on paratenial thalamus (PT), which identifies a molecular marker for PT and shows how PT interacts with the medial prefrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens, and basolateral amygdala, all done by my student Nigel Dao:

Excited to share our new J Neurosci paper showing how subcortical inputs are routed through ventromedial (VM) thalamus to layer 1 interneurons in the medial PFC, all done by my graduate student Sanne Casello:

Antipsychotics are often prescribed to suppress hyperaggression. Do they really suppress aggression or just cause sedation? Antipsychotics target dopamine receptors. Our new study, published today @Nature, uncovered the role of dopamine in aggression.

Thrilled that @HannahPaynePhD will join the NYU community as an Asst Prof jointly in @NYU_CNS and @NYUPsych! Will be awesome to see her investigations of one-shot episodic memory mechanisms by exploiting the neurophysiology of active vision and food caching memories in chickadees

I will start my group in @NYU_CNS in January 2025 to study how the brain tracks and predicts physiological needs using intracellular signals. Please keep an eye out for updates!
Been years since my last post - here’s big news… Excited to announce that @StephenXZhang will join the community of our CNS faculty @NYU_CNS to launch his independent research program! Ready to support and collaborate to help Stephen discover rules of biomolecular computation!

Huge congrats to the amazing @Karyna_mi for her new paper! She found that mice need the ventral hippocampus to perform hidden state inference while performing a 2-armed bandit task. 1/4

Happy to share our new J Neurosci paper, showing how mediodorsal (MD) thalamus engages CCK+ interneurons to evoke CB1R-sensitive feed-forward inhibition in L3 of prelimbic prefrontal cortex (PFC), led by @aichurokkamal, @kmanoocheri, and @theXL92:

1/ How do somatotopically-matched regions of sensory cortex interact? In our most recent paper at @CellReports, @__laurenryan__shows that whisker S1-S2 amplify touch bidirectionally via a specialized population of broadly tuned touch cells.

I'm very pleased to share our new collaborative study!
We identify the spinal cell type targets of two unique groups of corticospinal neurons, and how these distinct descending circuits interact with the brain.

Really happy to see @RyanWee's paper out today in @NeuroCellPress! This was one of the first projects in the lab - 7 years in the making! He found the ventral hippocampus defines behaviour in response to hunger signals. via hippocampal ghrelin receptors! sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
excited to post the latest work from @RyanWee! assisted by @Karyna_mi and @Rawryy. He found that specialised changes to synaptic connectivity in the ventral hippocampus defines behaviour in response to hunger signals. via hippocampal ghrelin receptors! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Nice bit of news to start the new term with! We will be looking for multiple postdocs across slice physiology, whole brain anatomy and in vivo imaging during fun behavioural tasks. Advert out soon but get in touch informally if this sounds interesting!
Congratulations to @macaskillaf in @uclnpp @uclbiosciences who was recently awarded an ERC Consolidator Grant. Andrew and his lab will investigate how animals dynamically shape their memory-guided behaviour based on their levels of hunger and thirst.
