@natalie_matosin @Amberrcurry absolutely smashed her data blitz on her work looking at stress-related changes to the spatial localisation of hippocampal cortisol receptors in psychiatric disorders!! Can’t wait to read her thesis in the coming months! 🔬💭

So fabulous to see this work, led by my always encouraging & supportive supervisor @TertiaTyson, now published. Our data is the first to suggest that stress signalling is altered in schizophrenia in a brain region not typically considered to be 'stress responsive' - the midbrain!
Dr. Tertia Purves-Tyson@TertiaTyson

So proud of @debs_sophie , another study contributing to her almost complete PhD thesis published, showing potentially altered stress signalling in the midbrain in schizophrenia doi.org/10.1016/j.jpsy…

A zoom in the Dentate Gyrus (DG), a region in the mammalian hippocampus that is one of the few sites in the brain for continuous generation of new neurons across lifetime, or neurogenesis! Mature neurons with their long extensions can be seen in cyan 🔵, while immature, newborn neurons are shown in purple 🟣. Because in each phase of the development these neurons express different proteins, we can target these proteins using a technique called immunohistochemistry, and we are able to identify in which stage of development these neurons are :). Microglia, shown in orange🟠, are the brain's immune cells, and are directly involved in helping regulate the whole process. They are removing unnecessary, wrong, or redundant synapses in a process known as synaptic running. All of these and other millions of processes happening at the same time in your brain! #Neuroscience is beautiful 🧠🔬

On World Suicide Prevention Day, the MINDS lab have completed our 9km walk in support of @LifelineAust campaign to remember those lost to suicide, and to bring awareness for their invaluable crisis support services! If you would like to contribute, it isn’t too late to donate!

Here’s a clip of the woman who confronted the panel. I deeply admire her courage. “It is nothing compared to the systematic and structural discrimination have to face, especially in the stem fields”
Michael 英泉 Eisen@mbeisen

In all the diversity trainings I’ve attended over the years, one has ever tried to prepared people for how to deal as a moderator or attendee w/the real & recurrent occurrence of a powerful scientist being an ass on stage. The attendee nailed it, the moderator did not.

One of our @UOW @CCeMMP PhD students is raising funds for the treatment of her extremely painful condition. gofund.me/cef6d1b6 The actual cost is several fold higher than the goal. Please consider donating even if the target is reached. Thanks in advance.
