📣 Exciting news - I'm hiring a Research Assistant to join the lab to work on translational research examining neural mechanisms underlying binge eating and eating disorders! 🐁🧠 If you or anyone you know might be interested, please pass along! careers.upmc.com/job/22707636/r…

@wickedneuro @NIDAnews @UMassPsychiatry @UMassChan @PittPsychiatry @CarnegieMellon @ChanZhou99 @apfenning congrats Ryan! That's amazing!

Our lab is hiring at all levels. Currently have postings up for entry level, more senior, and postdoc positions. Please reach out if interested! careers.upmc.com/job/21068977/r… careers.upmc.com/job/21069047/r… cfopitt.taleo.net/careersection/…

Opening for a postdoc in my neuroscience lab at Pitt using cutting edge population imaging and electrophysiology techniques to map circuits regulating internal states and their manifestations. My contact is on lab website: stujenske-lab.github.io

we're planning record minis from rat dissociated neurons grown in 225osm neurobasal media. What's the best ACSF recipe to avoid the osmolarity shock? is it better to slowly exchange the media for ACSF as it's done with iPSC cultures? Any other tips? Thanks!! #ephys

@KyleKetchesin @SeneyMarianne @mtorregrossa1 @NIDAnews @PittPsychiatry Congrats Kyle! Awesome news!

New R01 from NIDA with @SeneyMarianne and @mtorregrossa1! Investigating the bidirectional relationship between circadian rhythms and cannabinoid use. Excited to start! @NIDAnews @PittPsychiatry

@helenxhou congrats Helen! So cool!

We present Cheese3D, a system to sensitively track 3D movement of the entire face in lab mice. First #preprint from the lab! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/n

@mejoffe @npp_journal Congrats!

Now accepted at @npp_journal !

@katietschida1 @muruganmalu @dms248 @nyalki @alexophir @jesseGlab @DrZoePhD @kwanalexc 🥳🥳🥳 congrats!

My R01 got funded!!! That took awhile :) Thanks for advice, grantwriting feedback, and moral support from @muruganmalu, @dms248, @nyalki, Christiane Linster, @alexophir, @jesseGlab, @DrZoePhD, and @kwanalexc

@your_arpy @OHSUBrain Congrats!

I am honored to be among the recipients of the 2024 @OHSUBrain Faculty Excellence and Innovation Awards! Thank you OHSU & the Silver Family Innovation Fund for your continued support of my work. Congrats to my fellow awardees 🎉

We are hiring! If you are passionate about circuit and behavioral neuroscience and want to learn about neuropeptides, apply for our @ERC_Research-funded RA/Technician position @MedUni_Wien: melzerlab.org/Research-techn…. Please RT!

@MichaelPHart1 Congrats Michael! Level unlocked 👍

So excited to share our first paper from the lab! Brandon Bastien found that alpha and gamma neurexins are BOTH needed for a foraging behavior in C. elegans!! Check out the open access paper for more info!! rdcu.be/dswhD

We’re hiring! Seeking a bright & motivated Research Specialist to assist with our BRAINY study - examining the role of puberty on brain development in youth with anxiety. More information found here: careers.upmc.com/job/19450290/r…

🧵When and how does the striatum impact learning? Postdoc Kim Reinhold trained mice to reach for food pellets. They didn't know when the food was available so they had to reach randomly. One day, we provided a cue telling them the food was there. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

@sheacshl @CSHL Congrats Steve! Awesome!

So happy to share the news that @CSHL has appointed me Full Professor. Every day I think about how I can't believe I work here. So many brilliant scientists of all career stages that I am constantly learning from and inspired by. Thank you all!

@zenbrainest are those striosomes and striosome projecting L5 neuro ns?

@jasonyilab @SFARIorg congrats Jason!

Grateful to @SFARIorg for their continued support!

@muruganmalu Nooo! 😬 hope you recover quickly

Absolutely shredded my Achilles tendon while playing tennis. Looking at surgery and a very long and slow recovery. Absolutely bummed about this! I wish I could at least say I nailed the glory shot, but sadly no 😂

@mjoanasa Suppression of competition or promotion of image content?

Spot the differences (top / bottom tweets). They were published one right after the other, have the exact same content but one in text and the other in a picture

I’m so excited to share the results of our long-running project. Wonder what happened when we (unexpectedly) removed Nkx2.1-lineage neurons from the lateral septum? Well, it started like that, then grew and grew… Here’s the pre-print - we look forward to any and all feedback!
