Five years ago, I shared a picture of CRB on my very first day at @YaleChem. Today, almost exactly 5 years later I'm walking into the same building with a new title (and a lot of construction)! I’m thrilled to share that I am officially an Associate Professor with tenure!! 🥂🎉

Congrats Dr Greatness Olaitan who successfully defended his PhD dissertation this week. His work developing focused ultrasound parameters to treat fentanyl addiction relapse has real translational potential in opioid abuse. Congrats Dr Olaitan!

Another exciting new direction in the Venton lab is modulating neurotransmission with Focused ultrasound (FUS). Led by Greatness Olaitan, and in collaboration with Wendy Lynch, we can now use noninvasive FUS to modulate a dopaminergic circuit onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

We have several other multiplexing projects just out or coming out. For a long time we've viewed the brain one neurotransmitter at a time, but using multiple techniques is allowing us to look at multiple neurotransmitters in real time simultaneously!
