This claustrum neuron dendrite is so fat it looks like a mf cheeto (3 microns)

Serotonin and psilocybin activate 5-HT1B receptors to suppress cortical signaling through the claustrum doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

@DrJKhokhar Many thanks Jibran!

Wonderful new work from @BrianMathur1 and lab!

📢Hot off the press! Excited to share our new paper in @molpsychiatry on the role of ERβ in stress vulnerability. Thanks to all of the authors involved @pzanos @BrianMathur1 @KirmizisLab @Michael_Patton1 nature.com/articles/s4138… A thread🧵

We are hiring a postdoc! Check out our work and the group at thejuarezlab.com. 🧠🐭✂️🧬🔬

🚨🚨 To prospective PhD Students (or their mentors): @UMMedNeuro's PhD Program is having a virtual open house on Nov 8th at 5PM EST. This is an opportunity to learn about the program, application process, student life, and meet UMB researchers doing cutting-edge science! 🧠🧬🐁🔬

@zenbrainest ...but abundant in claustrum

Note: few 5-HT2A receptors in hippocampus and amygdala

We are thrilled to announce the post-Covid reboot of the Society for Claustrum Research Annual Meeting. Come hear a great line-up of speakers and share your poster! Please retweet! Registration details here: tinyurl.com/SFClaustrum

Literally the only good thing about this name change is that it has put this in my head youtu.be/zvgGNaTH7ds

Endocannabinoids are powerful synaptic modulators, but there's so much we don't know about how they signal. Here we show that *postsynaptic synucleins* are required! Shoutout @YueSunNeuro, @yulonglilab, @SudhofThomas, @BJunDing and the rest of the team! nature.com/articles/s4159…

The Caras Lab wants to hire a lab technician to work on our NIH funded project on the neural circuits that support auditory perception, plasticity, and learning! Ideal for someone looking to gain research experience before grad school. See caraslab.org for details!

Excited to have a new paper out today from data that contributed to Kara’s thesis project in Mathur lab! Thanks @kkc_bbq and @BrianMathur1 for letting me join team thalamus! #teamthalamusforever 🧠🧠🧠 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37022333/

Congrats Diana! Well deserved 👏

Fresh from the oven! Our recent article on the European Journal of Neuroscience, @EJNeuroscience. We showed that alcohol exposure during a period similar to the last months of the gestation stunts the development of multisensory integration.
