Congrats @AmelieBorie and coauthors in the @lyoun03 and @gordonberman labs! Excited to share our findings on how #oxytocin’s mechanism of action depends on prior social experience in voles. If you’ve ever wondered why OT might act differently in different people, read on… (1/5)

It is with an unbelievably heavy heart that I write that my husband, best friend, and partner in crime for 20 years, Larry Young, passed away unexpectedly. I will share details regarding a memorial service once I know something. Please share with those who knew Larry @lyoun03

Some days are good. Some days are great. And then some days one of your *undergrads* demonstrates that the cholinergic neurons (red) of the human basal forebrain express #oxytocin receptor mRNA (green)!🤩 @USU_UR

The ❤️ of my thesis was published today in @NatureComms. We developed a new assay, "Social Incentivization of Future Choice," to investigate the impact of social experiences on instrumental behavior in mice. Go read it! nature.com/articles/s4146…

Stoked to finally publish our Social Dominance paper using #AlphaTracker and wireless recordings to reveal pfc representations of dominance and winning behaviors and the circuits that control them!! nature.com/articles/s4158… THREAD from 1st author 👇
Nancy Padilla Coreano@DrNancyPadilla

Finally happy to unveil my postdoctoral paper on its final form, done under the guidance of @kaymtye and in colab with @BatraKanha @Cewu_Lu A few highlights: -A new dominance assay for mice -A new tool, AlphaTracker, to track multiple animals 1/n

Why is that good? Without the accumbens’ own endocannabinoid signaling, a pair-bonded female shows more rejection-like postures with her partner, treating him more like a stranger. Cool example of #oxytocin’s intricate physiological actions in the #socialbrain!(5/5)
