This chart unfortunately says it all. NIH funding for new research grants under Trump 2025 is falling far far behind past administrations. This isn’t just slowing science - it is undermining America’s global leadership in research and innovation.

Such a special day✨ thanks for being part of it!!

wrote up a little something about odor and spatial integration in the rodent brain. 🗺️🐀🌸 written with the twitter-less Nell Klimpert, Jason Ritt, and Alex Fleischmann :) Check it out ✨ frontiersin.org/journals/neura…

The Mayoral lab is hiring a research assistant! We are a cellular neuroscience lab studying glia-neuron interactions in the CNS. Come join our research team in lovely Providence, RI. Apply here: wd5.myworkday.com/brown/d/inst/1…

This month's Community Spotlight features Bahati Nkera, a 5th year graduate student working in the Barnea lab. Read more about his research and career path @ bit.ly/CarneyNkera.

@AizenmanLab Yes, 2018!

Combining experimentation and computational modelling, Carney researchers are revealing mechanisms of impulsivity associated with Parkinson's disease treatments. More @ bit.ly/CarneycompPD

This is evidence that targeting the peripheral nervous system is a viable approach. It marks an important step in treating pain, yet exploration of various approaches and targets remains necessary.

please advise.

new reviewer comments just dropped, and now I have to know… mouse hands or paws 🧐

And that’s a wrap on my Carney takeover! I’m ending the night at the @BrownUNeuro social, catching up with some of my favorite neuroscientists! If you want to chat, you can find me at poster BB22 on Wednesday at 1pm. See y’all around! #SfN2023

Last session, best session? Come chat with me about a closed-loop optogenetic system for deep behavioral phenotyping on Wed, Nov 15th from 1:00-5:00pm. Poster BB22. 🐭 #SfN2023

the girlies are obsessed ✨
