I’m so proud and beyond thrilled to share the final product of my thesis @SinaiBrain now published @Nature! Here, we explored the complex functional impact of rare neurexin-1 deletions across human glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons! nature.com/articles/s4158…

What a fantastic few days learning some amazing science from a brilliant group of scientists in a beautiful location! Thank you to everyone who put this symposium together and to all the leading edge fellows for sharing their science and experiences! @LeadingEdgeSymp

@kristenbrennand Thanks Kristen!!

So excited to be part of this amazing community!! Looking forward to meeting and learning from everyone! @LeadingEdgeSymp

@shanmeltzer @VandyPharm @VanderbiltBrain Congrats!

Thrilled to announce that I have accepted a TT faculty offer at Vanderbilt University in the Dept. of Pharmacology @VandyPharm and Vanderbilt Brain Institute @VanderbiltBrain, starting in September 2024!! 🥳🥳 We will study mechanisms of somatosensory circuit assembly for touch and pain, in health and disease. We will be hiring at all levels!!

We are hiring a research assistant to work with me on understanding the mechanisms of protocadherin function in neurodevelopment and disease! If you are looking for an opportunity to gain skills & work on challenging questions, come join our team! opportunities.columbia.edu/cw/en-us/job/5…

Very excited to have received a #NIHMOSAIC K99/R00 award through the NIMH! Looking forward to continuing my work on the protocadherin gene cluster and joining an amazing group of other scientists in this program!

@kristenbrennand @Mbfneuro @SamPowell_Neuro @Liz10486 @kt_neuro @CarinaSeah @SWilliNeuro Congrats Kristen!! So well deserved! 🎉

Still looking to fill this research assistant role! Please apply or reach out if you are interested!

We're looking for #postdocs to join our broadly focused efforts in long reads (@PacBio & @nanopore) and #epigenomics (fanglab.bio/publications.h…) to develop new methods for detecting #methylation (& more) in #bacteria & #humangenome. Ad: fanglab.bio/join.html Please RT. Thank U

Our paper on sci-Space, a spatially resolved version of sci-RNA-seq, is out today! Led by @srsrivatsan and @mregier13, Joint work with @JShendure and @kellystevenslab. (Art by @nigelsussman)

Delighted to share work from my postdoc, co-advised by @nevillesanjana and @tuuliel! It began with wanting to identify target genes for GWAS with CRISPR screens and single-cell seq. Brief look below, with shout-outs to my amazing co-authors! Link: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Now out in @NeuroCellPress -- We report a rare variant association study in an Ashkenazi Jewish (AJ) cohort of patients with schizophrenia (SCZ). Headline finding: cadherin genes associated with SCZ Tweetorial below Free link: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

I'm excited to share our new preprint, led by my postdoc @g_dafni and @beryl_bbc in collaboration with Garrett Garborcauskas, @dgmacarthur, @nanopore and others: Transcriptome variation in human tissues revealed by long-read sequencing. Thread 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

What makes a memory? Is protein translation involved? How do you successfully transition from a postdoc to a faculty position? Listen to our new episode with @prerana123 to find out! #neuroscience #WomenInSTEM
