I am thrilled to see my postdoctoral work finally published in @NatureNeuro ! (free access here: rdcu.be/dpQhG). We used in vivo ephys and a new behavioral paradigm to elucidate what the PFC represents when mice face danger. These are the main findings of our work: 🧵
Thanks @JoeyCheers for your support. Thanks @LabAraque for giving me the opportunity to work on this wonderful project. Thanks also to the judges who believed in my work. Moreover, congratulations to @lujanpema for his award. @CannabinoidGrc@UMNeurosci
Do not miss our last preprint from our amazing postdocs @CarmenNanclares and @JNoriega_9 showing how Bergmann glia regulates intrinsic properties of purkinje cells contributing to spinocerebellar ataxia type-1
🚨POSTDOC and RESEARCH ASSISTANT open POSITIONS.🚨
Astrocyte-vasculature interactions in mice & human using imaging (2P, confocal, EM) & molecular biology (omics, CRISPR).
Underrepresented and multidisciplinary backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
Email me for more info.
Happy to share that Gfap-melanopsin is already release as viral vector. Astrocytic lovers, you might be interested! 😉
Now available at med.unc.edu/genetherapy/vect…
Student Spotlight: Jacob Noeker (@NeuroNoeker) is in his first year of the PhD phase and is planning to pursue his interest in translational neurogenetics in the Araque Lab (@LabAraque) (1/2). #doubledocs
Today, our postdoct @JNoriega_9 will be presenting our recent results about astrocytes and endocannabinoids in the #WCBR2023 at 4:30 pm. Do not miss this interesting talk.
It will be a pleasure to talk about how astrocytes regulate synaptic physiology and the consequences in neural network and behavior. See you all there! @UMNeurosci@biocytogen@MayoClinic
