Very happy and proud to share our new review in JNeuro on the Neuroscience of Hormonal Contraceptives 🧠💊🔬 jneurosci.org/content/44/40/… @LeunerLab @HellerCarina @TronsonLab @ismail_nafissa @kristen_schuh @sarahkheloui + Ami Raval @SfNtweets @SfNJournals

@NeuroEndoAWF Congrats @NeuroEndoAWF !

Did a thing 🥰

@nntaleb @PeterAttiaMD @foundmyfitness @BioLayne @mackinprof Is there more context here?

The protein story is based on statistical BS, amateur data fudging. Bro Science is really for idiots. 1- Some do very well growing muscles on minimal protein ing., others poorly on large doses. 2- Remove the line, see the fraud. 3- One of the authors failed to reveal he was SHILLING for a protein supplement company. 4- For older people, ZERO evidence that supplementation work. 5- There is a variance among individuals but can be partially due to OTHER stuff they do, ingest, etc. (h/t @maxflowminclout). cc:@EricTopol

@nntaleb @BioLayne

My lab is hiring 2 postdocs on a NIH-funded grant characterizing molecular & cellular changes in the human brain across menopausal transition. Other neuroepigenomics projects are also available. We plan to hire a wet lab scientist & a bioinformatician. Please RT! More info 👇

Belated post, but we have 2 new papers out! 📑 We used a cross-over design to study emotion regulation & fear learning during menstrual cycle phases, OC use, and IUD use. A short 🧵1/4

@bjmarlin @anamchuk @ouraring @SfNtweets Sadly I’m just about to board my flight home! Good luck @bjmarlin !

@anamchuk @ouraring @SfNtweets @JesseMLacasse If you are please let me know I’ll find you for a quick recharge! Thank you!

Good 🌅 #SfN2024! Anyone have an @OuraRing charger I can borrow? I’m trying to keep track of all these @SfNtweets steps! 👟

@AbizaidAlfie @ismail_nafissa Thanks a lot Alfie! Great seeing you

Really nice symposium! Congrats to all speakers! @JesseMLacasse @ismail_nafissa

Beyond #SABV #SGBA to understand consequences on women's🧠health - we need to understand how HCs impact the brain. So if you are at #SfN2024 check out this symposium tomorrow with @JesseMLacasse @TronsonLab @ismail_nafissa @neurokaty @HellerCarina Ami & Sarah

@NeuroEndoAWF Great talk @NeuroEndoAWF !

SfN is finally (nearly) here! I'll be presenting some of my dissertation work on Sunday afternoon at a mini-symposium all about sex comparisons in learning and memory. Please swing by if you'd like to hear about sex differences in the ability of estrogens to promote memory :)

@SfNtweets Please attend our mini-symposium tomorrow if you want to learn all about the neuroscience of hormonal contraceptives: 2PM in MCP S102 💊🧠 #SfN #sfn2024 #SfN24 🧠💊 @neurokaty @ismail_nafissa @TronsonLab @kristen_schuh @HellerCarina @sarahkheloui

If you plan on being at @SfNtweets in Chicago and want to learn about all the cutting-edge neuroscience research on hormonal contraceptives, please attend our minisymposium! Monday, Oct 7 @ 2-4:30PM MCP: Room S102 Join us!!!

This review was born out of a collective effort from a group of incredible HC researchers who will all be presenting during a minisymposium on this very topic at the upcoming @SfNtweets next week.

Excited to share our research which found that the menstrual cycle and oral contraceptive pill cycles (2 generations) had minimal impact on 20+ common cardiovascular outcomes & cellular regulation. Important considerations for female inclusion in biomed research. @ajpheartcirc

Thank you to the team: @jemcheng, Jenna Stone, @michaeljkamal, @joshuacherubini, @macgparise, @macdonmj, & countless others who worked tirelessly on this project! #dreamteam

postdocs and about-to-be-postdocs! we are still accepting postdoc applications for the Translational Neuroscience of Drug Addiction T32 here at UCLA. if you're interested in working on neuromodulation, neuroendocrinology, or neuroimaging and drug addiction, please reach out! 🧠⚡️

📢Up to 30% of women in their reproductive years experience menstrual cycle irregularities. We investigated the impact of a prolonged menstrual cycle on hippocampal morphology in one participant 🧠 Our new paper is now published in #npjwomenshealth @Nature_NPJ @NaturePortfolio🚨

I’m so excited that our team (six clinical psychologists!) were able to contribute this dimensional measurement approach to reproductive psychiatry via @molpsychiatry! The most exciting thing is the potential for better phenotyping/ measurement to uncover unique targetable biotypes. Applications to other reproductive transitions coming soon 👀 👀 👀

@kristen_schuh @TronsonLab @dave_bridges Woo! Congrats @kristen_schuh 👏🏻

I am so excited to share that my F31 on the regulation of stress and depression by hormonal contraceptives was awarded by the NICHD!!! I couldn’t have done it without my amazing mentor, @Tronsonlab, co-sponsors, @dave_bridges and Dr. Adriene Beltz, and reference letter writers!

@Fardad_P @CherylMMcC @sdglasgow Congrats brother! 👊🏻👏🏻

Thrilled to share that I successfully defended my master's thesis! Huge thanks to my amazing supervisor @CherylMMcC for all the guidance and support. Special thanks to my committee members Dr. Spencer and @sdglasgow for their invaluable insights. Excited for what comes next!
