📢New Open🔓 Access Paper Alert Differences in motor learning-related structural plasticity of layer 2/3 parvalbumin-positive interneurons of the young and aged motor cortex by Andrew M. Davidson & Ricardo Mostany (@rmostany) et al. rdcu.be/dWIlF #aging #cortex #interneuron #motorlearning #structuralplasticity

Recently published in #JNeurosci: Ducote, Voglewede, and @rmostany investigated the synapses in the somatosensory cortex, which support learning and memory, in mice. The researchers discovered significant changes in the synapse structure of aged mice that may hinder learning and memory retention. @Tulane @MostanyLab @TulaneBrain jneurosci.org/content/early/…

😎The coolest swag in town! Come to our booth and learn about our PhD and MS programs in Neuroscience. Today we'll have Drs. Daniel @jillmdaniel at the booth! The Director of the Brain Institute Dr. Matthew Dalva is also around. Visit us! @SfNtweets #SfN24 @Tulane

Still time to check @UgidosF poster on the lack of effect of ketamine on plasticity in the aged dmPFC this afternoon @SfNtweets #B57 @MostanyLab @TulaneBrain @Tulane

Today's 25th Annual Retreat of the Tulane Neuroscience Program and the Tulane Brain Institute was a success, again! A fantastic day with our students, faculty, stuff, and the student candidates for the class of 2024 #Tulane #Neuroscience @Tulane

We are still receiving applications for our Neuroscience PhD Program. Apply here: sse.tulane.edu/academics/grad… Deadline: 12/15. No app fee Regardless where you apply, please read the excellent thread below on how to write your personal/research statement. Thanks @KateWassum! @Tulane

Alexis Ducote @_Alexis_Ducote from our lab is presenting this morning his data on the reduced remodeling ability of dendritic spines of aged mice. Continuation of the work of former lab member Rebecca Voglewede @rebvog Stop by PSTR187.18/C26 @SfNtweets abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/10892/p…

Our lab is presenting this pm at #SfN23. Cemo Semmedi will be presenting her data on age-induced changes in the expression on plasticity regulators PSTR125.15 / C44 abstractsonline.com/pp8/#!/10892/p… Stop by! #SfN2023 @SfNtweets
