We used rabies virus 👾 to map how #psilocybin modifies long-range circuits 🧠, revealing network-specific reorganization that we didn’t expect. Full study now online at Cell @CellCellPress Paper 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.cell… Thread for a synopsis 👉 x.com/kwanalexc/stat…

New preprint + thread 🧵 #Psychedelics induce the formation of new synapses, but where do they connect? Our rabies tracing study reveals that #psilocybin shifts connectivity across specific cortical networks. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/12

Tomorrow, Sept 19 | 3:30 PM, at #CCNP2025 (ccnp.ca) in Montreal, I’ll be co-chairing the symposium “Psychedelics & Psychiatry” 🍄🧠 with @swubat. We’ll explore how psychedelics reshape brain circuits & behavior, bridging preclinical & clinical perspectives.

For us, #OpenScience also means investing in sharing our resources and techniques with the community through courses like the Summer Workshop on the Dynamic Brain. Happy #OpenScienceWeek!

Recently wrapped up two incredible weeks of intense team 🧠 science on San Juan Island 🌲🌊 @ the Dynamic Brain Workshop by @AllenInstitute. Easily the best learning experience I’ve ever had—huge thanks to the organizers, and deep gratitude for the community, ideas, & teamwork 🙏

The best part was the hands-on experience and teamwork—studying neural signatures of how the brain familiarizes with stimuli over time. Visualizing the data, I saw neural dynamics bloom into flowers 🌸 & spirals 🌀 across brain areas—so exciting! 🧠✨

Had a fantastic time at the Neurobiology of Psychedelics GRC. Only a week yet feels like it could have been months. New community, new lab, novel and diverse ideas and perspectives, unpublished brand new research, a lot of growth. Easily one of my favourites #GRCPsychedelics

The first #GRCPsychedelics was referred to as the Woodstock of conferences. Feeling extremely lucky to learn from pioneers of psychedelic neuroscience, and get to know so many of the legends and new scientists who are making discoveries in this exciting field.
